The descent begins......
I've been single for several years now and have devoted the large majority of my energies to finishing raising my kids. In my life "mother" is a verb. As the years went by and the kiddos got older I found myself with more and more time on my hands. Ya know...I thought about foster care for kids, but I know myself and sending a child back into a situation I knew was bad would break my heart.
So I settled on foster care for dogs. I've always had dogs, when I went away to college it was the first time in my life I hadn't had a dog around. I actually caught myself "accidentally" dropping bites on the floor only to realize there was no dog down there! My reasoning was this...when a dog is surrendered to us there's no getting him back. He's mine and I get to find him a "forever home". I called the Humane Society and within a couple of days had my first furry kiddo.
