2 calls in 1 day

Wow I cannot believe. First we got a call for a 2 year old and a 8 month old sib group and just a few minutes ago got a call for a 3 month old. Incredible!!!!!!!! Please pray that we get this little boy. He is just one town over which is less than 3 miles to where we are we are on the border so there is a good chance . Ahh all these calls and waiting is killing me LOL

no kids under 9 need homes where i live. if you aren't willing to foster teens, they are closing you up. lol. i have teens already...so i only wanted younger kiddos.

3 kids in one day??? wow !!!! don't over do it. I have only taken in 2 in the last 2 years and still have them both but they both came to me with medical issues and it has been sooo much work, I can't imagine taking in 3 at one time. We have been hospitalized a few times and you wouldn't believe them amount of appointments. I average 4 apps a week just for the 2 foster kids that I have. I have a total of 5 kids, 2 bio, 1 adopted and 2 foster and they come with so many issues even as infants. let us know what happens if you get all 3 of them....
And for them family who was closed for not taking teens, thats just not even right.. There are many families who cant or wont take in infants/ toddlers due to them working or whatever. thats just not right. I am very sorry to hear that.

mommytoElli--where I live they discourage parents of teens to take in teens (of the opposite sex) because of the obvious issues that may come up.
