I AM A FOSTER MOM
by Kat Harrington
The licks and the wiggles
Bring countless giggles
To ease my heart and soul
From a ride in the truck
To ‘Let’s chase the Duck”
It does take a very hard toll
But I know in my heart
That God’s creatures are smart
And they remember those who are kind
So I smile on the outside
And cry on the inside
As I beseech those wonderful minds
To teach them they can trust
That not all humans are ‘bust’
And that there is love in the human hand
I will feed you and play
Til the end of the day
As you wrap my heart in a band
Because for over 20 years
Through laughter and many, many tears
I have loved and cared for my four legged friends
Some from the moment they arrive
and then open their tiny eyes
And alas…others til their very end.
I AM a Foster Mom!

I'm 57 years old and I've been around the world a bit but my heart breaks to see the plight of some Vizslak; it's only fixed by seeing the kindness of those that rescue them. Brilliant story Rod; thanks for posting it.
