Part of me died today. My calling ended. My calling/work,
Children's Service Society, discontinued its adoption placements program today. We are celebrating our 125th year this year and we had to discontinuing a legacy. I am sad that I no longer work with such a wonderful agency and for such a wonderful cause, but I am sadder about our waiting adoptive families. They've mostly had to transfer to a different agency. We've tried to make it a smooth transition, but it’s still a little bit of starting over. It's been hard. I am grateful that I was a part of Children's Service Society for 4 1/2 years. It was a beautiful time. We are still continuing adoption related services, so a small flame of the legacy is still burning.
