Thank you for sharing. I...What a great post Cristy. Thank you for sharing. I love reading stories where someone made a difference in someones life, especially a child who has been hurting for so long. You are so right...so many of the kids in the system just need someone to be willing to stick it out wit them. I live in California and there is a program that has been started where you can get involved and be assigned one particular kid that is in the system and being bounced around from foster parent to foster parent but the one consistant thing is the person that they have been assigned to through this program. I pray that I can be a part of this at some point. I have 4 kids of my own but I am just about to the point where my kids can take care of themselves. I have always had a heart for kids who have been hurt and just need some love. Again, thanks for sharing that story.<br /><br />Anne @ http://lessonsthrulife.comUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11654879438305968231noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1303333560746376334.post-26812250836245142142010-09-09T13:10:48.618-07:002010-09-09T13:10:48.618-07:00I love you.
