New to the board
My husband and I are newly becoming foster-to-adopt parents. We won't have our license for another week or so. I am so excited and nervous about all of this! I just can't wait for our first placement!! It is nice to hear all of your stories of success and heartbreak! ... You know, when you first decide to become a foster parent, you have an idea in your head of how you will react or feel, and how well you THINK you will handle giving a child back to his/her parents? I know my head sais that I'll do just fine, but my heart is trembling with nerves!! lol To keep ourselves in the right state of mind, my husband and I posted a neatly typed paper on our refrigerator that states, "For every child's life that we touch, we will be making a positive difference!"
How long did it take most of you to get your first placement? Did you start off feeling as I? Talk to me...
Thanks!
