Officially initiated!
So, today is my first day as a licensed foster parent! And guess what! I got a call at 930 am today for a potential placement. A 2 month old little boy with Lowe's syndrome. He was born premie at 29 weeks and was to be discharged from the hospital today. I waited 6 hours to hear from my agency on whether he would come into care. Unfortunately, the county decided to go with a home that they had worked with before
So, I was just initiated into the rollercoaster ride that is foster care ![]()

Congratulations on your license and your first call.
