The beginning-part 1

I really wish that I'd started this sooner, started right from the outset; the searching for a family, the talking to the families and then the choosing of the perfect family. In hindsight it probably would have helped me choose but in the end I didn't really need that. As Mum said from the beginning




"if it's meant to be, it will be"


I was beginning to doubt this, despite sharing the same ideology it seemed to me that all hope was quickly fading. It got to the stage where I thought, what's the point? no one wants me! 

Just as I was starting to loose hope, families started to fight over me, first one family application, then four and then BOOM! fifteen familes all speaking French to me and expecting a reply completely in French. This was the point I began to dread saying I'd write back in French; that my French language skills were very good.

Finally, after what felt like months I found my family, my perfect family.
2 children and parents that can speak English as well as French; what could be wrong with that...?
