you foster kids you have always wanted to and now you feel ready. I go to the adoption home I sit down and wait to see the kid they bring me you’re only taking them for 4 weeks but you are gonna try and be the best parent you can.

I sit and wait in the room the kids drawings on the wall the white and yellow walls and crayon marks over the walls. You’ve not read her file yet it’s sad next to you I’m waiting until she’s with me before you read it

you get called into a room where there’s a little girl on the floor sat organising rocks that he had collected nd the case worker sat on the chair the young girl couldn’t be older than 7 she looked sweet and timid
