Making a difference...One Starfish at a time

Our family started fostering back in 2005. We have been blessed to love on many babies. There has been many twists and turns throughout our journey and in December of 2010 we were called for placement of a newborn baby boy. His biological mother worked a case plan for 18 months and after 23 months she surrendered her rights and we adopted 'Sprout' in December of 2012. Our faith has been tried and tested and we are still certain that God is faithful!

I was approached by the foster care supervisor to talk about permanency for Daisy. When we were called for her I was specific and precise in letting her know that we have NO intention on adopting a baby girl. We are (after all) foster parents FIRST!!! Today we discussed how important it is for Daisy to bond and attach. We also discussed that if I had no intention on adopting her maybe it would be best to place her NOW rather than later. HELLO???!?!??! Does ANYONE listen when I speak??? I TOLD her this! I explained to her that although we were not looking to adopt a baby girl we could (however) love on her and give her a history. (ie- photos, baby book...) I know that God knows what He's doing...I just really wish He'd let ME in on it!!!!
