a second blog?

Do I really need a second blog? Has it come to this? Apparently so.

Sometimes there are things I would really love to write about my fostering experience but to post those comments on my primary blog would not be appropriate. I learn a lot by reading the blogs of other foster parents though so my hope is that someone may be able to learn something from mine.

I don't take babies or teens, and right now I don't take boys. I've heard stories of horrible abuse from the mouths of children in my care and though I thought I was wise to the ways of the world even I was shocked at some of the sexual abuse adults inflict upon children. I've been punched, kicked, scratched and spit upon. I've had furniture and appliances broken. I'm still here.
