    When Hope is lLost

     

    They talked for a while concerning his living with her and if he was sure that he wanted to be with her as family and he answered her by sharing a wonderful, warm hug and letting her know again that he trusted her and strongly felt that God had brought them together. They then talked about how they were going to figure out a legal way for him being to be with her permanently.

     

    Bette laughed at herself in a quiet moment, as she was getting them ready to go and find some lunch. She realized that she was creating this role of ‘motherhood’ rather quickly, but then in truly thinking about the situation and him, it all felt so right. The two of them fit together well, kind of like she had fit together with her former family members. Funny she thought as she smiled in that moment. She decided then that it would probably work best if she became his foster mom first with the intention of adopting him.

     

    Ozzie was similar to her in that everything he owned fit into his backpack as well. After returning back to the brownstone and dropping off the bags, they walked out into their new neighborhood and found a small deli to get something to eat. He surprised Bette in ordering a salad as well. He stated that he loved veggies best and she just smiled, bought a milk and juice for him along with a cup of tea for herself and a couple of bags of chips and back they went to their new home to eat.

     

    The kitchen had a breakfast nook for them to sit at and soon they were in the midst of conversation and eating. He shared what he could remember regarding his beginnings with Bette about his mom and Rose, and what he was doing now to survive on the streets. Bette shared with him about her life in LA but only on terms that he could understand.

     

    Then she shared with him about her interview in a couple of hours for hopefully employment, then they would go shopping for furniture and others things they would need for setting up their home. He was excited in thinking that he would have his very own room with a real bed as he had never had one of those before. When she suggested possibly for him to check out the neighborhood close to the brownstone while she was gone his beautiful smile beamed back at her.

    3. And there’s the kindness that Bette needed. I do hope Bette is allowed to be a foster parent to Ozzie. He deserves a home and Bette deserves the chance to repay the kindness she’s received. Thanks for the post. :)
