    I was just thanking my lucky stars this morning as I typed a letter to my clients to tell them that my new family who were here only 3 weeks are leaving without a proper explanation. I'm blessed with 4 wonderful families and 4 great little ones in care right now. The children laughed and laughed all day even though we were stuck inside due to freezing weather but we made our butterfly crafts, danced and played and then they slept 2 1/2 hours which was great. We're going outside for the next two days because it's supposed to warm up a little - Thank Goodness! So even though there are some bad things happening in my life I'm trying to see the positive side.

    Your new dcb is gone?! So sorry things didn't work out, but you are probably better off without them if that is how they operate! I hope you find a great new family soon!

    Yes, I was blown away to say the least because I grilled these people for 3 interview meetings to be sure they were a fantastic family and I took them on to replace the family I had to terminate. I TOLD them I didn't want another family slipping by me like that and was honest with them from the first minute. There is NEVER a guarantee for us, sadly. We are at the mercy of the families no matter if we have been in business a month or 10 years. The best we can do is enforce our contracts and hope that we are working with the best families possible who are honest and value us. We deserve respect! We work hard and I think shaping the lives of little people is a very important job.

    Today I'm grateful for sunshine. We spent the entire morning at the park then my little ones slept great this afternoon. That's a great day!
