Richard and Lewis are a couple from London who are raising two adopted children. Every day, parents blog about the challenges and joys of foster parents: Adoption is an adventure that never ends. We think about kids all the time, and as they get older, it gets harder to explain things to them. It would be dishonest to pretend that the beginning of adoption is always filled with joy and anticipation that we will be parents again. Each new adoption process makes us nervous and anxious about whether we can find contact with the child.



As parents, we have to do things we wouldn’t do. But out of love for our children and because we only want the best for them, we will do what is right. We will try to give them the best for their future, even if it is difficult sometimes.

Richard and Lewis share their emotions with their followers every day. Blogger dads not only share their own experiences, but also support all those who want to adopt a child. Their goal is to show people that adoption is not scary, but sometimes exciting and sometimes delightful. The best thing that can be is the sincere joy of becoming a parent, so there will always be strength to solve any problems and difficulties in raising children.



The experiences of adoptive parents Richard and Lewis often pamper son and daughter, but more importantly, dads both spend a lot of time with children. They celebrate all birthdays together, ride together on a swing, grow seedlings, play games, have picnics: "My whole world in one photo, in which we spend time together all day," says happy dad.

There are things dads will have to explain to their eldest son and little daughter. Dads have a hard time, too.

There are so many ways to break my heart into a thousand pieces, but I didn’t give it a go. We explained to the children that they have mothers, and in their honor we lit candles with the children. A small part of me will always be sad on this day, but as time goes by, as children get older, they will understand more about how the world works and be able to cope with their emotions.

Dads try to be better parents, but don’t forget about themselves. Lewis says it's very easy to switch to kids and forget about your needs. But you need to monitor your appearance, habits, mood to set a good example.



Instagram.com Sometimes you can relax, but at some point you will have to pull yourself together and be a role model: be in a good mood, be friendly to others and monitor your appearance. Of course, these are not the most important things in the world, but children always imitate their parents, so there is no time to relax.



A child is a small person who depends on parents for a short time. Do not be afraid that an adult child will fly out of the nest and arrange his life. Rejoice that now all your free time your baby reaches out to you, learns from you, grows and develops. Raising adopted children or relatives is a difficult and responsible task. Once a child will find his way in life, and letting go of the child will not be easy. A child will ask about their biological parents.

It doesn’t mean that your child is betraying you, or that they’re not grateful for all the years of care and love you give them every day. This means that the teenager is looking for himself. He wants to know his roots to understand himself. True parents are those who raised a child and did not give birth. Perhaps the child will worry, he will grieve or be angry. At this point, he will need to support and relieve his own fears. Be a good friend, support him, spend time together. And you will see that any relationship with another person, even a very small one, sooner or later becomes mutual.
