Foster/Adopting
My family has undergone a series of classes and interviews and such for becoming a foster family for kids... Which it is so heartbreaking to hear of the great need for foster families... Anyways, we have finished everything that needed to be done to get ourselves and our home ready to start receiving some precious additions to our family! :) And i am VERY excited to announce that this friday night we will be getting our first set of kids... But let me say first that for about a month and a week we will only be doing what is called respite and what that is, is where we "babysit" other foster families kids while the parents go on a vacation or take a little break from fostering. The break usually consists of 2-4 days away. Anyways so we will only have this specific set of 4 children for 2 days :( a little bummed about that but excited that this is real and happening! I cannot wait to see how God uses our home and my family to show his love to these kids who have such a need for it! I just know that he has very unpredictable plans for us that will totally rock our world! If i can ask for prayer for my family and I as we undertake this new addition to our lives that would be so very appreciated! There is nothing like the power of prayer and i am a firm believer that God answers every prayer in his perfect timing! :) He answered ours... Now lets see where he leads us with this!
