We became foster parents 12.5 years ago for a specific child. We are friends of the family and mom couldn't care for him. We offered to care for him for 3 months. He is now 14. We are his legal guardians but consider him our own. He considers himself adopted and has 2 moms.
We decided 4 years ago to become foster parents again. We love children. We saw a big need in our community. We had no intention of adopting. Well, we are in the process of adopting T. We have had him since he was 6 days old. He is now 22 months old and our adoption will be final Nov. 18th. ( Wow!!! next month!) We haven't decided if we will continue to be foster parents. There are alot of changes happening in our county. We will keep our license open though.
