In developing Big Family Solutions, I came to the conclusion, that I want my business to be so much more than a "Business"! What is it that I stand for; what drives me to do what I do. This is most easily explained by my Mantra "Healing Tiny Hearts". Simply put, I do have something that drives me, and a passion where my heart lies in "Healing Tiny Hearts".
I have 6 girls...2 biological, 4 adopted (not to mention the 20 other kiddos that I have called mine in the 10yrs of fostering). It's not too hard to figure out that my heart lies in Foster care and Adoption!
So what does "Healing Tiny Hearts" mean? Obviously, children that are in foster care or adoptive homes usually come from situations that are less than fabulous. And, no matter what their history is, they have greatly hurting hearts from, at the minimum, their tiny lives being pulled from everything they knew. Every child entering foster care or adoption has a hurting heart and is in dire need of healing.
I care deeply for these kids and have opened my home to as many as I could. However, my desire to help "Heal Tiny Hearts" goes farther than my four walls. I understand that I can only physically touch so many Tiny Hearts, and there are so many more out there. They are in homes like yours! I want to help families who foster and adopt to be their best. What better way to help Heal MORE Hearts! We need to join together to learn about our hurting kiddos and how to best love them and to support each other in our everyday living in order to do far more than just survive, but to THRIVE!
