Hello
I am new to this board, but what I have read so far has been very helpful.
My story is this, my husband and I feel in love with a 4 year old little girl in his aunts foster home. We have contacted our state agency , went to the orientation meeting, and have started the process of getting a worker.
My concern is are we doing the right thing? We have a 4 1/2 year old daughter and a 12 year old son. They are are world. I'm not as worried about the change with our son due to the age gap, but I don't want my daughter to feel like she has to compete, or is second best. A co-worker made the comment walk a mile in her shoes, how would you feel? She is the baby of the family and only granddaughter. I want this to be a healthy good thing for her. This is really bothering me, and I'm not sure how to handel it.
Any advice???
thanks
