This is my Blog - Welcome!
It is a great honor for me to share my thoughts with you. Foster parents in South Africa have been isolated long enough. It is time that we take hands and start supporting and encouraging each other.

Thank you for reading my blog and I am looking forward to telling you more next time!
With love and hope
Susan
