Hidden Burdens
Ben and his wife, Kayla, are foster parents who take in kids who have met with unfortunate circumstances and traumas in their lives. While trying to help as many as he can, Ben also struggles with his own insecurities, which can be traced back to his childhood when he lost his best friend, as well as learning to navigate his own, personal walk with Jesus. Soon, he meets Kimmy, a quiet, mute kid who reminds him so much of his childhood best friend and is afraid there's more going on than what's on the surface. But as Kimmy slowly opens up, he learns she's just a sensitive soul like him, carrying a burden she shouldn't have to carry. (This is a realistic-as-possible story while still being fictional about foster care and the kids who are placed in care. I have both researched how things for the state of Arizona's Department of Children's Services are handled and from foster parents on YouTube)Complete
