Happy Mother’s Day from this Mama’s boy🫶🏾 Loving mothers lay their lives down for their children everyday & if you’ve read my story, you know my mom risked her life for mine.

I don’t know what it’s like to be a mom, but I do know what it feels like to be a vulnerable child.

Hey everyone, it's a special day today because my son Anthony is turning 18!
 It feels like just yesterday when I met this amazing young man. It was back in 2017 when I became a part of his life when he was just 11 years old.
It's been a challenging but an awesome journey so far

Peter Mutabazi ran away from an abusive home in Uganda at the age of 10. Now, he lives in the U.S. and has fostered and adopted many children. https://t.co/Vrgyw3ATHv

This little one…

Came to us a year and a half ago! 🤩

What an unexpected delight this little one has been! 😍 She has brought so much joy to all of us and taught me things I never knew I needed to learn. 📝

To be patient, tender and understanding.

We have another Mutabazi birthday in our house today! 🎉

Luke is turning 8 today! 😊

Luke is a happy soul with a cheeky smile.

Luke, loves asking questions and is inquisitive about the world around him and all of our interests and hobbies. 🤗

He’s a kid

Happy birthday Luke!

Today, Zay turns (20?). 🥳

Although he’s all grown up and aged out of Foster Care, he’s still my son. 🤗

It’s amazing seeing him working and taking care of himself 😍

Seeing him grown makes me feel proud of how far he’s come. How confident he is and the great sense of humour

[Peter Mutabazi @FosterDadFlippr]

@bbcworldservice @kasujja Thank you for sharing our story and for making us seen, heard and known. Truly a joy to be an advocate for the most vulnerable especially children all over the world!

At the age of 10 @FosterDadFlippr was a street kid in Uganda. Now he’s a single dad in the USA who’s fostered 38 children as well as adopting three @kasujja #AfricaDaily 🎧 https://t.co/7MY0iF31I1

2023 brought us so many gifts.
I am grateful for the 7 kids we got to foster, & for the opportunity to adopt Luke and Isabella & make them forever part of our family.
Thank you to the social workers who have entrusted me with these kids, and especially to the kids’ bio parents.

We are raising funds to provide room makeovers for teens so they have a space to call their own. In the past we have designed rooms with different themes. We need your help making over their rooms to create a space they’ve always dreamt of.

Your help is truly appreciated.

[Peter Mutabazi @FosterDadFlippr]

Wait what! @UMichFootball ! 38 what?

[Peter Mutabazi @FosterDadFlippr]

Allow me to introduce the REAL boss in the Mutabazi household I mean, look at that sweet face..who wouldn't want to do exactly what she says? 😍
When people say, "A picture is worth a thousand words"—they were talking about THIS picture! 
Let’s just say this picture says it all

[Peter Mutabazi @FosterDadFlippr]

The first time I heard words of affirmation spoken over me, I was already a teenager.

But even then, hearing kindness and love from the lips of a stranger made a huge impact on my life—that man's words are the reason I'm still here today! #KindnessMatters

[Peter Mutabazi @FosterDadFlippr]

I never had a pet before, but I knew that having a cuddly pup in the home would likely help make it a welcoming a place for new kids. I actually fought off dogs for many years, because they wanted the same scraps I did! But I knew then what I know now dogs break down barriers

[Peter Mutabazi @FosterDadFlippr]

Anthony was my 12th placement. I wasn’t ready to take him in. They asked if I would take him just for a weekend. So I said, “why not?”
Then they told me he didn’t have anywhere else to go! I knew, being a teenager, it would be really hard for him to find a home and get adopted.

[Peter Mutabazi @FosterDadFlippr]

Alternatively, we could do something a bit shorter:

Is it Easter Sunday..? 🐣 or just another frantic morning trying to get kids out the door fed, clothed, and happy? 😂

Happy Easter from my controlled chaos to yours 🫶🏾

[Peter Mutabazi @FosterDadFlippr]

You know your message has come full-circle when you see kids in your home wearing shirts that SPEAK their true value! 🙌🏾

You are LOVED.
You are SEEN.
You are HEARD.
You BELONG.

When I was a teen, it wasn’t the warm meals and the roof over my head that meant the most to me…

[Peter Mutabazi @FosterDadFlippr]

Well well @Chiefs ! Congratulations 🎉🎊🎈

[Peter Mutabazi @FosterDadFlippr]

Celebrate with us… it’s Brenlynn’s 8th birthday! 🎉8️⃣🥳

As we landmark one more year of her life with cake and partying together as a family today, I can’t help but remember her parents and the gift of life they’ve given her 🫶🏾 and the gift I have to be her dad for a time! 🙌🏾
