The next step in our journey...

I really stink at updating this blog, unless there's big news!

It's been 2 years since the boys were legally adopted, although I can't imagine a time before them. They are just so wonderful. Yes, we have our issues, and bad days, but they are our joy always.

So for a while, we have discussed fostering. The boys want more siblings (brothers, although Dan would like a sister like his little cousin we had for 10 months as relative caregivers). We would love to have more kids around,  and our homestudy is out there, but we are being very careful because a match has to be right for everyone. In the meantime, we have extra space and decided that fostering is a great way to help, and to give back for all our blessings.

We could be licensed as early as next week for one child under the age of 1! Our boys know that we are helping care for a baby whose parents need extra time and help to be ready to be the childs parents, and they know that the baby will go home, and that in the meantime we love and treat the baby like family. They are excited, as they loved having their baby cousin around!
