      Awww thank you so much for the kind comments. I'm a single mom to a 7 year old (my husband/his dad passed away before he was born) so I'm single and my son really wants to help kids and have siblings and has been begging me for 2 years to become a foster parent. It's tough to do in New Zealand but I definitely won't be giving up and I'm still going through the process.

    When I was 9 living in a pretty toxic household, a 56 year old woman who had a couple of donkeys let me into her world. I was really just there for the donkeys at first, but she was the first adult who showed me what real peace and calm and kindness was. She'd let me spend an hour with her in the evening at feeding time, sometimes walking the field, sometimes sitting in the straw on the floor in the stable. She was the first adult I'd ever known who seemed to actually want me around. She was English. I was Americasn. She didn't care. Her name was Mrs Flower. She lived in Dove Cottage on Honey Hill. Sounds like a fairy tale, but she was beautifully real. I never forgot what she did for me, just being a kind grownup who let me into her world, and so I grew up to be that person for other kids sometimes. Show up for their school play, come to their door on their birthday with a pointy party hat on and a tooty horn and invite them for lunch, or just visit for a little while out in the yard when they're on the way home from school. One boy was moving away and I told him about lots of good things he'd find in the city where he was going and he said, "Yeah, but I'll miss YOU." I was just a grownup who let him stop by and visit sometimes, talked with him. Nothing important. But it matters to those kids. The look on their face when you show up. The look on their face when they have to say goodbye. It says everything. Someone did that for me once. I know how it feels. So, I do it for others. It's not much compared to what this man does, but you'd be surprised at the impact of small gestures.

      I was a kid like that. Not a toxic household but a single mother who was so ill that she in periods were extremely close to death. I was also bullied and Sa by someone close to the family. I longed to be seen and to have time with an adult who could teach me things, tell me stories and just be like a grandmother or aunt. I hade three lady’s like that in my life before I was 8 (we moved a lot). They made a difference in a world that was very, very dark. Mrs Flowers affected your life and you are doing the same for children who need you, that’s a gift to them and to little you. Some of those kids will go on in life better, happier kids because of you. Please never stop giving back to the children.

She's now an adult and on her own. My husband doesn't have any and after he's done in the Army (roughly 5 years left) we will be looking for a surrogate, but we also want to adopt our first child together within the next 2-3 years max. We don't care about the age, sex, race, disabilities, etc. Every child deserves to be loved, properly cared for, and shown that they DO matter and they ARE wanted.

    Greetings to Jay from Berlin in Germany! 🙋🎄Thank you Peter, Jay and all... that you introduced us and gave us a picture about Jay and foster care life. So...I hope, that Jay would not just be with you for only 4 weeks! So, that he finaly could find some stability now and stay a little longer, like untill his highschool is finished or longer. If he also would like it.😍☀️

    You’re literally one of my very favorite humans. I’m a wannabe foster mom (life just isn’t conducive for me to deal so currently, but I’m more excited than I can express for the day I can!!), and watching you grow your family has been such a joy! Those really are some lucky kiddos to be a part of such a loving, open family. So many blessings to you and your amazing kiddos in 2025 and beyond ❤️

    Oh my goodness, Graham, NC is in my county. I work with teens here, and we have such a shortage of foster parents and a really overworked, underfunded DSS. It's infuriating and heartbreaking. I'm rooting for you J, and I'm so glad you're in a supportive home! ❤ (Also, I'm super impressed with your cooking skills!)

    Welcome Jay! My big brothers name is Jay, he just turned 80 and i’ll turn 73 soon. When our father died Jay worked and helped our mom and if it had not been for him we probably would’ve been in foster care! So with a name like Jay you have to be one of the good guys! Hope you enjoy your stay with Peter, he is a good man! 💙💙💙💙
