    Cathy, of course, you should have been paid for bringing these children into your home. If you were well off, that wouldn't be an issue. I know you absolutely did the best for these kids, and in my opinion, they were very fortunate to have a home with you.
    Love you sharing your memories with us it's very special❤️

    My grand dad was funny .my sister and I were brought up by them my bith mother left us and we called them mum and dad my auties and uncles were my brothers and sisters to us.
    And to be fair they gave us a lovely life and prevented us from going into a home.

    Nanny, thanks for sharing, and thank you for being a foster mother. It’s a very important job. I’m sure you were a wonderful foster mom, of course we all have our moments. It’s a lovely morning here in NC. The high is supposed to be 66 and the sun ☀️ is brightly shining, it feels so good to my bones. I told you in another comment that I’m ill. I am in end stage renal failure, which means I have dialysis three times a week and I absolutely hate it !! I’m just being honest. You have to sit very still for four hours while the machine cleans out all your blood. I’m not on a transplant list for a kidney yet because I have another illness called calcphilaxis , it causes phosphorus to build up in your blood vessels…..sometimes I get so down and have always been a very happy go lucky kinda gal….don’t get me wrong this isn’t a pity party as I do have good days where I definitely laugh ! Oh I also lost part of my left leg due to diabetes and that’s also why I’m in kidney failure. I didn’t do what I was supposed to with my diabetes. I ate and drank what I wanted and refused to take insulin. I thought the Metformin was good enough….WRONG. I’m so happy to see you take good care of yourself as I’m 51 and a mess lol. Okay, enough with the depressing talk. Again thank you so much for just being YOU !
    Much love ❤️ and hugs 🤗. 🙏🏼❤️🕊️

    OMG Cathy!!! 😢THANK YOU 😢!!! NOW I know why my mother never said I love you or kissed me/us!!! 13 of us. My Father DID. English Mother & Italian Father, Grandmother ALWAYS. I ALWAYS THOUGHT IT WAS BECAUSE HER 2ND PREGNANCY, WAAAAAY B4 I CAME ALONG, SHE WENT FULL TERM WITH IDENTICAL TWINS, BONNIE WHO LIVED 3 DAYS N THE OTHER.. NO NAME BUT I CALL HER BRIDGETT, WAS STILLBORN 😢. Now that I think about it my English Grandmother never hugged, kissed, or barely spoke. Very very sweet n polite though. Always had mints in her house dress pocket for us. ❤❤❤😢THANK YOU very much!!! I'm 57 n now know! Ugggggh!

    When you say you only had 15 to 19 year old foster children . I think you have just as much hard work to put in to keep them happy. I worked with 7 to 11year olds at youth club and was asked to work with 11 to 16 years old but I couldn't do it. I didn't have enough patience. I did same a you when it was birthdays and Christmas I had a new coat or decent boots from my mum. That's what we did then.😂

    Have you ever been married ..or were you single when you fostered children?
    Do you use street view on your phone? You can travel anywhere in the world with that (virtually) just put an address in, you can then see what the
    street/area is like now, compared to years ago (like the foster home you went to) xx
