As you all know when I left my old foster home I left Aaliyah behind. I felt so guilty I knew she'd become confused quickly and that she'd be very upset. I missed her dearly too. We had phone contact but it just upset her so much. It upset me too but not as much as it did her. Over the weekend I talked to people and brooded so bad about Aaliyah. She'd become like my daughter and I was so close to her.. I missed her laugh and smiles and her telling Zoey she was going to get kisses..
I decided when Monday came I would tell my social worker how I felt and I'm so glad I did. When she came to visit I told her straight away and she told me that she was looking for a new placement for Aaliyah but it was unlikely she'd be placed here as it was a mother and baby placement for me. Also if they were to even consider it then would my foster parents be able to deal with writing 2 fostering logs as they need to.
But on tuesday this happened as another emergency placement and guess whos here
My name is Kaaliyah (Kay or Layah) Owen. I'm 14 years old. I have recently been blessed with a beautiful baby girl who I have named Zoey after my mum. I live in the care system and am currently placed with a foster family in Great Yarmouth. I'm really loving it as were right on the beach. I've found them to be the most supportive ever as I had a hard time when my mum died as my dad turned to drink. I recently also lost my dad but I know that me and Zoey are going to have a good life where we are now.Me and my daughters dad Joey have a really on and off relationship which I know we now need to sort out not only for Zoey but also for Joey's 3 year old daughter Aaliyah. I can't wait to experience life as a mummy to a little girl and Step-mummy. Also a kid who now knows what it's like to live in a family where I'm loved and looked after and I don't have to do the looking after.
Blogging helps me to express the words I can't to other people which makes it less stressful on me.Which is always good.
