We keep running into friends out in public and they seem to be confused unless they happen to catch the news on the good ol' book of face.
We got our first foster placement. I will explain more at another time but it doesn't look to be anything permanent.
It sounds exciting but remember what had to happen in order for this to be the case. Something went wrong in someone's family. This isn't necessarily a good, shiny happy part of the story.
Speaking of, we won't be sharing his story. For multiple reasons but mainly because it's his story, not ours.
Pray for him, for his family, for us as we all transition.
And know that my husband is the greatest foster dad ever. ever.
You are blessed to be a blessing.
ReplyDeleteGood Luck! I'll be thinking of you-
ReplyDeleteFrom experience I know it takes about three weeks before everyone transitions and life starts to feel "normal" again
I just recently returned child #14 to a caring family member- enjoy the adventure!!!
The beginning of quite an adventure. Praying for you all and for the little boy.
ReplyDeleteThanks for being a safe home for hurting kids and their families. I'm thankful that God made people like you who are helping put the world back together.
ReplyDeleteWishing you lots of luck on this exciting..scary..fun..emotional journey you are on.
ReplyDeleteSo happy you are providing a safe home for the little dude no matter how long it is.
So excited for your family! We too recently added a foster baby to our family. Love the wording you used about it being his story not yours. I will be praying for your family as you adjust to another little one in your household!
