👦🧒 Miles was only 7. Carter just 4.
💔 They had already lost their mother, been passed from place to place, and learned far too early that the world could change overnight. The only constant they had was each other.
🤍 Miles held Carter like a promise — as if love alone could keep them safe.

🚲 I was just the bike officer they trusted. I kept showing up. I kept checking in.
One quiet day, Miles looked up and asked something that changed my life forever:
“Can we stay with you?” 🥹

📚 At 23, I began the journey — classes, background checks 🏠, paperwork, patience, and months of waiting fueled by hope.
✨ Eighteen months later, they didn’t just move in… they came home — carrying my last name and a future they finally believed in.

🚔 Today, they wear the uniform too — strong, proud, and whole.
💙 Of all the things I’ve done in life, raising them was the one thing I got right.
🤍 Love didn’t just save them. It built a family.
