Anticipation

This morning, there are ten families waking up for the last time before forever taking on the title of Helping Paws Foster Home.

Of course, the person who wasn't excited for the arrival of a new puppy would be a very odd individual. But after meeting each of the foster families over the course of the last four weeks, and hearing their stories of why they decided to become fosters, I see again what the power of love for others can do. These families are taking on an awesome responsibility. Yet each is enthusiastic, excited, just-can't-wait-to-get-started-anxious for tonight's big delivery of their long-awaited pup.

As the journey begins I have just one piece of advice. Enjoy every minute - fostering this pup will always be one of the best things you will ever do.
