Let’s Begin…

My story is both profound and simple. It is mine and belongs to so many others. The narrative is still being written and I cannot pretend to be the only person holding the pen.

The reality is this: I am a 36 year old single female embarking on the adventure of foster care and adoption. I’ve put it off for years. Simply put, the “where to start” part is both exhausting and overwhelming, so I will document the in’s and out’s here.

Those who know me well will tell you that I’m not much of a “sharer.” I’m not one to tell my secrets to those who most love me, let alone broadcast them on the worldwide web. However, it is my hope that the awkwardness and research I pour into the next years will pave the way for someone in the future. Hopefully if you are reading this, the journey will be a little less difficult for you.

This has always been something that I’ve “meant” to do. Recently, I was reminded that even the best of things do not begin until you start. So, here I am: starting.

Thank you for being here. The best is yet to come.
