I am so sorry for you loss. I have been there.

Are you planning to foster-adopt or going with an agency for adoption?

If you are planning to foster-adopt you should be able to go to your state's DCFS website and download a foster parenting manual. There will be requirements in there such as locking up all medicine and cleaners etc., having outside equipment anchored, pools blocked, fire extinguishers, fire plan posted, etc.

Good luck!

None- my little one going through terrible twos is also about to have a tonsilectomy. Ugh. If you have stories of success please pass them to me. If you have a horror story, please, I don't think I could handle it right now. LOL

Former foster son came this past weekend for his birthday celebration and one last hoorah before school starts. I was happy to see him doing better.
