Today I was walking Snow White to school and she was skipping next to me. She started singing "I love my Mommy, I love my Mommy". She paused, huffed, and said to me "Come on! You have to sing back "I love my daughter, I love my daughter". So that is how we walked to school. Her singing to the world, "I love my mommy" with me echoing back, "I love my daughter."
Tomorrow there will be a visit and someone else will be the mommy that she loves. But this morning as she skipped to school without a worry, she wanted to sing about loving me.
Foster care is a roller coaster. It is the moments like this that keep you sane and strong enough for tomorrow.
