Here's a bit about Michelle :
This is my Foster Adoption Journey. One morning, sometime after my forty-third birthday I realized I wanted to be a Mom.
In this book you'll hear about my foster children, how I had to let go, and whom I fell in love with.
EXCERPT:
Now I appreciate that you might think any normal woman would want kids in her twenties or thirties, but I didn’t really. My husband and I were busy with career, traveling and partying and, well, I just forgot to have kids. I never heard my biological clock ticking and now my alarm was ringing, and ringing loudly! ... My hubby and I decided to adopt through foster care, but had no idea what we were in for! This is my story.
