hi, were not foster care parents, we went in this for adoption only. we finished our homestudy and our classes. we wanted siblings, older.

well, it took about 1 month after the classes (our homestudy was still being done) and they talked about two little boys ages 5 and 7.

well, that was nice but we just started the adoption stuff, and we werent sure if we just wanted to jump write in, so we went to a couple of adoption parties, (it was awful, but we were encouraged to go) We had not seen any pictures of these two boys as of yet, and then there they were on the board.

well, that was the end of that, these kids they talked about had faces now. We talked alot about it. a few weeks later we got another call that they had three kids that were abandoned, we thought hard about that, but then guilt set in, FOr some reason we felt that we were suppose to adopt those other two boys.

Well, one is in our home, the other comes on weekends (due to legal stuff, i posted that issue on legal, but still no reply) anyway, it has been wonderful. There both wonderful kids, and yes they are both considered special needs.

Its alot of work, but its been worth every minute of it. There a joy in our lives.
