IT has been a while since I have posted. Our two little guests went to some relatives at the end of April, Then I traveled out of town to a Foster parent conference. The weekend before I left was our 22 wedding anniversary, and thanks to Grandma, We got to spend a night away. WE stayed at a hotel here and went bowling and to a movie, then just "hung out" We even slept in until 8 o'clock. ( can't remember the last time I did that.)
For Dinner before we came home, we went to the Melting Pot.It was SOOO Good. Especially the chocolate! ( Can chocolate be bad???)
Anyway.... The Tuesday after I returned, we picked up two new little guests. A two month old girl and her almost three year old brother. Due to the trauma of their situation, it has been a little bit hectic.
Baby E doesn't scream so much anymore. My buddy J is finally starting to feel safe and comfortable, and has even started trying to communicate with us. We actually heard him laugh today. Good progress!!
I am so grateful for the glimpse that a loving Heavenly Father gives me each time we take another one of his precious little spirits into our home.
It also amazes me that he knows them and he guides us as to how we can best help them.
I pray for these little ones, and hope that those who are in authority over their situation will be prompted and follow those feelings to do what is best for these precious little children.
AS school is winding down, there are so many things to attend. Concerts, awards ceremonies, showcase performances. all added on to our already busy schedule.
I am grateful to my mom and sister who are so willing to step in and be part of our extended foster family to help us be everywhere we need to be.
