Day 24-New Life

Our good friends have recently become foster parents and are fostering a 6 week old baby girl.  I was very interested to learn a bit more about foster care as it is something I have very little experience with and was curious to know more.  The sweet baby girl they are currently fostering was only three days old when they picked up her from the hospital.  For whatever reasons, her birth parents are not currently able to take care of her and she may be adopted eventually.  I was absolutely thrilled to have the opportunity to hold, feed and just enjoy being around a sweet little baby for a while.  It brings back memories of my own babies.  It seems like my own children have grown up so very quickly and their babyhood seems almost like a blur as life is always so tiring and busy when you are the parent of someone who needs feeding day and night.  I'm so glad I had the chance to enjoy the little one even briefly as babies are so sweet and innocent.  I hope this little one's finds a wonderful home and is blessed with two parents who are able to take care of her well.
