After two years of helping my parents with their foster kids and debating on fostering myself, I’ve decided to take the plunge. I’ve talked with one of the case workers I know and had an unofficial tour of my home (because it’s small and I wanted to make sure it wasn’t to small), the next classes for certification are in the spring and I will be attending them.
I’m a little nervous, but also really excited. I’m opting to take infants to 5 and temporary emergency placements.
“Love is a striking example of how little reality means to us.”
-Marcel Proust

I submitted the lyrics a few years ago and I just recently added the mechanical steampunk heart behind them - they seemed awfully lonely!
The lyrics are, of course, from my favorite band Motion City Soundtrack. I found the surrounding artwork while scouring the depths of the internet and fell in love with it immediately. After gaining permission from the young and talented artist Chris from Evolve tattoo in Farmington, MI, tattooed it for me.
