This is not a food related story but it is a “ feel good” story… About 27 years ago we opened our home and our hearts to to friends daughter who was 5 years old at the time. Her mom had bad addiction problems and could no longer care for her daughter. We fostered her, grew to love her and wanted to adopt her. She was the sweetest, most giving, and loving child, despite her upbringing. She flourished under our care and we adored her. Unfortunately, her mother would not consent and we couldn’t go through with adoption. After going through a lot of legal stuff, we unfortunately had to return her to her mom. Her mom would not let us see her very often and they eventually moved to Alaska. Fast forward about 25 years. She found us through social media and we reconnected. She now had 2 kids of her own. She had a difficult childhood, but seemed to be able to overcome some of that. She went to culinary school, she was very involved in her children’s lives, and said that it was her time with us that gave her a strong foundation. She said seeing our lives, our marriage and our acceptance and love, gave her hope. She decided to move back to Vegas where her 2 sisters and her dad live. ( she only saw her dad once in awhile) She called us about a week ago and we were able to see her last Friday. I can’t tell you how happy I was! It warmed my heart to see her and meet her 2 daughters. To know we had made a difference in her life was a great feeling. I only wish we had been able to have her with us permanently. She is extremely courageous to break away from her mom who still continues to use. I can see some ptsd kind of issues in her and she does struggle from depression but overall she is adamant her daughters will have a different life than she did. Anyway, great to reconnect and we will from now on be in her life! God definitely has a plan and we are looking forward to seeing how it plays out💜🙏
