The places I've seen
The faces that have looked back into my eyes.
Stories etched in memories.
Trusted words spoken by my lips on tender ears.
It's all going to be ok, you are safe.
Relinquishing embrace as they turn to run into the arms of the future.
This is faith.
This is what it means to believe in what you can't know.
This is true love as we let them go.
Doesn't take a genius to read my heart
Don't need pitch perfect hearing to hear my heart break.
I'll miss them with my soul.
I'll hand them over to the two angels made to take them home
This is faith,
This is what it means to believe in what you can't know
This is true love as I let them go.

Awww Maria, I'm really emotional these days, so reading that just made me tear up. Awwww!
I'm sure you did a good job as their foster mommy, and it can't be easy letting them go, but that is great that they are going to people who want to adopt them.
Hugs!
