A NOTE FROM THE AUTHOR: In remembering the writing of DIAMOND AND
THE FOSTERS, I am reminded of an eight-foot-long, filled pillow my
family used to all nap on during long Saturday afternoons. I am
reminded of "pow-wows" my father used to call after getting
promotions and bonuses. It is the same spot Diamond lands every
time she sits in a circle, legs crossed, with her new family. In
those moments, I am Her. Sitting, with a spark in my young eye,
hoping for a chance to say what had just become perfectly clear. I
cherish those memories, and I hope they can inspire parents and
children to come together, in a circle, to share a little song.-md
