Well, I have a very active life! I take care of my 3 kids and my 2 foster children! It is hard dealing with abused children, but they deserve love, compassion, understanding and caring! They deserve the chance to have a safe and healthy life. I have a 7 month old baby in my care that has had such a hard little life in such a short time span. It was hard to go to a hospital to get him, and a see the hurt and mistrust, the fear and the damage! I could see the external things, be told of the internal things, but being with him day in and day out, I was able to feel his pain. He was afraid to cry, afraid to sleep, eating very little. But with alot of love and care he is growing, sleeping and he actually smiles, and laughs, he like to play and crawl, get into my movies, and know that he isnt going to be beaten for it. Or starved for crying! In the 2 months he has been with me he has gain almost 8 pounds, and is crawl, trying to walk and being a baby! It is great and it makes me feel good to see it! It makes me realize my childhood wasn't all that bad.
