We wanted a girl, 5-10 yrs.

We were planning on adopting my neice and needed a foster homestudy to have her move in. DCFS chose another family over us then called with another child who would be available some day after tpr. We said yes. Family came forward and was granted custody of that child. How ironic that we lost a family member then lost our foster child to her family member!

We've had almost 20 foster children and are adopting our last four. Both girls were outside our "desired" age and came with brothers. We couldn't have chosen better kids for our family, but God sent us the kids who were meant to be with us!
