And Now They Know

Welcome back to Taylor Talks!

Well, my siblings know that our youngest sister will be leaving our home next week. My mom actually told them over Thanksgiving dinner yesterday. I don’t think that my youngest sisters, or my little foster sister, understand what this actually means, but my other siblings do.
We have less than a week left with my little sister, and it’s very upsetting. If she was leaving our house to go home, then I would say alright, it’s part of being a foster family. I would be sad, but I would know how to deal with it. But I feel like she’s being ripped out of our home to go to another foster family and it’s just making me angry. I’m upset, I’m frustrated, and I don’t know what to do about it.

I’ve decided that the only thing I can possibly do is to help make my little sister’s transition as easy as possible. I started writing a letter to the new foster parents, to tell them about my little sister’s favorite television shows, and what kind of environment she lived in here, and little things that they should know about her personality. I haven’t told my parents that I’m writing this letter yet, because I’m afraid they’ll tell me not to do it. I don’t know why; maybe they’d be happy that I’m writing it. I’m not sure. But I’m just writing it and having a friend of mine read it over first, and then if it sounds good, I’ll show it to my parents.

I still wish there was some way I could fix this situation, and let my little sister stay with us. I’m really disappointed in the foster care system right now.

I’d greatly appreciate it if you would share this blog with friends and family through your favorite social media sites. If you’re sharing on Twitter, don’t forget to tag me (@TayTayK02) and use the hashtag #TaylorTalks.

Thanks!
Taylor

    About

    Picture
    My family started doing foster care when I was three years old. We took in nineteen children over the course of eighteen years, with our last placement leaving in December 2014. I'm the only biological child in my family, though my parents adopted five of my siblings.

    I love to share my perspective on the foster care system and share how my unique upbringing shaped my life.

    I'm also a Cast Member at Walt Disney World and lover of all things Disney! My career allows me the opportunity to find a little bit of Magic in life every day.


    I enjoy sharing my journey as a writer as well. Find my children's books on Amazon and keep following my blog for updates on future books that I'll be releasing!
