Dear Friends and Family,
One thing that is ever changing in a foster family is your numbers. By that, I mean the numbers of children in your home. If you read last week's post about Adoption you know that we recently adopted and added to our permanent family. We now officially have four biological daughters and two adopted sons!
However, change is always happening when you foster. We currently are fostering a sweet baby boy and a teenage girl which brings our household to a grand total of 10 people! The baby was placed with us through DHS and has been with us for a couple months. The teen was a mutual placement with her parents' consent to stay with us for a period of time till things evened out in their home. We don't know how long either of these placements will be with us.
What is funny to us is when people comment on how many are in our family! Honestly, we don't notice it. Until days like today when 6 out of 8 kids are gone for the weekend. Then it seems SUPER quiet!
Praying that your weekend is blessed!
If you missed last week's post:Adoption!
Until next time...
Have a blessed day and embrace the craziness in your life!
Heidi
Numbers 6:24-26

Blast Into The Crazy Past: How Fostering Changes Your Life...
Welcome to memories...my memories....welcome to a Blast from my Crazy Past!
It is interesting to see how things change in your life. I wrote this a year ago, in 2015 to read to a few close friends one night. I ran across it recently and decided I would share it here. It was hard to decide whether I should have it go out on Fostering Friday or today since it isn't current events. So I went with Blast Into The Crazy Past.....
