Eyes Wide Open

<blockquote><p><em>"If you are exploring the possibility of getting involved with foster care or are already involved in this profoundly difficult yet rewarding place then this book is a must read for you. You’ll find the insight encouragement and hope you need no matter where you are on your journey."</em></p><p><em>- Jason Johnson author of "ReFraming Foster Care" and "Everyone Can Do Something"</em></p></blockquote><p>This story is an account about engaging in foster care: how it opened our eyes our hearts and changed the way we live our life. We entered foster care in ignorance of a complex system full of people who live and hurt differently than we do. The more time my family and I spent involved with foster care the more people we met who opened our eyes to the hurt around us. This is a narrative of our journey in foster care an educational resource but even more a story of how we learned to see others -<strong> how we learned to love</strong>. </p>
