“.. For the first time I realized that my writing could live outside of my homework. I could create a story that was bigger than me. And after that I fell in love with it. I began to write my own little books. And Mrs. Hart always encouraged me. I’m a teacher, so I appreciate Mrs. Hart’s efforts and actions, but I want to point out that your half in this story is just as important. Thanks for writing back . I like to think that this is what can happen when we keep showing up for each other. It might be a small gesture, such as writing and returning a correspondence, but it can become so much more for us. Congratulations on your book and please keep. This is so beautiful! I also loved writing stories and books when I was in elementary school. Now that I am about to turn 50 and thinking about what I really want to do with the 2nd half of my life, and what really brings me joy, I am feeling drawn to You don’t stop playing cricket when you get old poster

What a gift she gave you. I imagine that it can be hard to not let gratitude slide into guilt. You and your sister experienced things that no child should and you were failed by a system that should have protected you. When you can, remember that you. My niece (and her husband) is going through the foster process to take in children and will provide a wonderful home. The process has taken forever and they have had to go thru so much and still have yet to have a child placed. These stories are. Heartbreaking to even think about what adults do to children. It has been this way for years when will it end?!? My heart goes out to her and her sis. May they continue to heal.. I grew up in foster care and my big sister was my protector. I know how you feel. I’ve thrived and am successful today only because of her sacrifices. She shielded me from so much so that I could thrive however the sacrifice she made for me made her You don’t stop playing cricket when you get old poster

This hits me so hard. I had a similar experience starting from the age of 5. A few years later when he started on my sister I chose to take on the same roll & protect my little sister. There was no escape, we just had to find ways to deal with it until. I am so sorry – I grew up with someone who could tell a similar story and it’s heartbreaking. We didn’t know until much later in life and the guilt over not seeing the signs still hits pretty hard. The system is painfully broken. I wish you both. As an adoptive parent who would do anything for my children, this breaks my heart and makes me so angry. She shouldn’t have had to be your protector but I am very thankful she was. She’s a great person and I wish you both much positive and healing
