Produktbeschreibung

To every child who has graced my life and to those whose hand was held. Also, to the servants-those fellow warriors who extended their hands. Your stories are written forever on my heart. This is His love story to you. I have watched millions of children come in and out of the foster care system. This story was born because I had witnessed so much pain. But I kept working because I had so much hope. And one day, a peacock really did come and stand outside of the door of the shelter where intake occurred. I know a lot of foster parents and friends who share my burden and want every child to know that they are loved and to find their forever home. The purpose of this book is for healing. This is my response to all those children whose hearts were our purpose and to every foster parent and worker within the juvenile dependency system who refused to give up on our children. Those who came to work tired, who chose love. You are all as beautiful as that peacock. This book is to help you to connect and heal and to be a mirror so that anyone who feels broken can see themselves in the eyes of God.

Autorenporträt

Sasha Mizrachi is a licensed mental health counselor who served the community for twenty years. Her heart was for family. She wanted to work with foster kids because her burden was to heal the family and to create support for children removed from their families due to abuse indicators. Her belief was that family breakdown occurs because of generational trauma. But her heart was for children, and her desire was to stop the unhealthy patterns. She started out as a youth care worker. She loved going to the shelter and reading bedtime stories and building relationships. When she became a therapist, she got her first important job in the Department of Children and Families intake. It was the first point of contact after removal. She was doing crisis assessment and recommendation. But she still would go to the shelter and rock babies and read bedtime stories. Her first big accomplishment was the ability to look every child in the eye, smile, and call them by name. The reward was when they became teens and remembered her by name.
