Foster Parents Thank You Cards
As a foster parent, there’s nothing more appreciated than a heartfelt thank you from the child or children in your care. But sometimes it can be tough to know what to say in those moments to show your foster parent appreciation, but it’s important to encourage foster parents so they keep doing what you they do best!
. Here are some ideas to get you started!

- There ae many ways to define family. for some people, it is defined by a blood family. For others, it is the people who have been there a long time, through the sleepless nights raising someone else’s family. I am so grateful for the support and courage you have shown. You are making a difference in people’s lives!
- Thank you for opening your home and hearts to me. When I first came here, I was scared and didn’t know what to expect. But you made me feel welcome from the beginning! You stayed with me during my sleepless nights, you helped me to become a better person, and for that I am truly grateful.
