Angry First Call!

After being officially license for 4 days I got my first call! Unfortunately, I had to turn it down because even though it was for a 1 & 3 yr sib group it was an emergency placement and the cw didn't know how long the placement was going to be.

To be perfectly honest I don't know why she called me. She knows that for now I only want to be contacted for children who have already been TPR'ed or legal risk. I am hoping that this is not a pattern because I felt seriously guilty telling her no yesterday!

I got the call while I was at the supermarket so I came home and immediately started putting the furniture together in the nursery because clearly this really could happen at any minute! Here's hoping that a second more appropriate call comes soon!
