The fostercare Santa arrived down the road two nights ago. You might ask what is a fostercare Santa..? Its just a person who doesn't know anybody concerned bringing presents to a needy child three weeks before Christmas...So why is this an experience? Well, it all started a month ago when the foster mom received a call and was asked what this child liked. Her answer was just about anything, it really doesn't matter..At the time I thought it strange, usually a child mentions at least a dozen things they really really want...Then she was given a date Santa would be stopping by for delivery. When the day arrived the foster mom was irritated saying she had to be home early that night for her foster kid..they were having a Christmas Party. To make a long story short Santa came delivered the gifts then the foster mom took off shopping with her friend. The foster child remained home alone eating a submarine sandwich which the foster mom had purchased earlier from a store. Witnessing this was my experience however the foster child was living this and this my friends was Christmas!! Hope your holidays are filled with love and warmth..
