Foster Kids, Why are you so special?

Hi, glad you could come and check out my blog for foster kids!

That picture is my baby brother Rob. He was my favorite person in the world growing up and now that he is gone, i want to remember him by helping All kids in foster care but especially young boys. 

Rob use to ask me: "was he special" and here is what i would say to him:

Even though mommy was sick and had to leave us in foster care, does not mean we are not loved or special. Her leaving us in foster care was better for us. We got meals and we were able to go to school, meet new friends and later go to college. 

Mom loved us, but could not keep us so she placed us where she thought we would be safe. I use to tell my brother we all have angels but foster kids are more special because we will have extra angels looking out for us since our parents could not. You have to know when that thing inside tells you to do good or be nice, that is the voice of your angel leading you the right way.

I want you to know that you are special because You are going to set a good example for others in foster care by going to school, choosing smart, good friends and by always treating yourself and others with respect.

If you want to get ahead in this world you must learn to love yourself and respect yourself. This means that you would not do anything to be in trouble with the police or your teachers. You would not do drugs, because they are harmful to your body and kill your brain cells, and you need all of your brain cells at your age.

You are special and special people think alot of themselves, they want to be good to others and helpful. 

Starting today remember you are special because you are here to help the world be a better place. 

If no one told you today, I love you, the universe loves you, God loves you and you need to love you!

Smile and be kind to some one today, your angel is watching and so am I!

Bye the way, your the greatest kid on earth, don't forget it. Expect more of yourself and ask for less from others because YOU will always get what you need, if you work hard... love you all..
