Time Does Help Heal

I've heard this saying many times but never really believed it. Time does have a way of easing the pain. I've given myself some time off from the stress of trying to start a family. As a result, I feel more at peace with everything in my life. I've learned to accept that if it was really meant to be for me to be a mother, than it would have happened or could happen.

Anyway, my husband and I have decided to keep our options open by recently taken steps to become foster parents. We were never the type of people who felt that in order to have a child -IT MUST BE OURS. There are so many children out in this world that are in need of loving homes. It's quite mind blowing. To answer the question for those of you who want to know if we thought about adoption, Yes. We researched it and it's not something we can accommodate into our budget. I don't see how these agencies can put such a high price tag on children who will given permanency. I mean I know that bulk of the cost is given to the orphanage but there should be a middle ground somewhere.

So this is the new chapter in my life and will be blogging more as the journey continues.
