(I guess it’s a bit outdated now, I’ll update that soon!) As well, you can read a bit more about BB8 and our time with her here.

FOSTER CARE IS UNPREDICTABLE – I have no idea if we’ll have 2, 4 or 6 kids next month – UPDATE
I’ve got another foster care update for you today! All I can say is that the system is unpredictable and I try not to be surprised and just plan for anything and everything to happen!

FOSTER CARE UPDATE & what if you don’t agree with the system? & other foster care Q&As
I wanted to share a little bit of a foster care update today and answer a couple more foster care questions I get asked. Question I will be tackling included: what do the kids call you? what does the timeline look like for going home/how much notice do you get? what if you don’t agree with the system? how much control do you have over the ages you have in your home? If you haven’t yet watched my previous foster care Q & A I would recommend doing that as well. Oh, and you can see our foster care timeline here.

FOSTER CARE Q&A – adoption? the hardest part? saying no?

One Year With R2D2 – Another Fostering Update
Wow, here we are. I can’t believe that today marks one year that R2D2 has been with us! This is the longest we’ve ever had a placement and truth be told: we’re pretty attached to him. The last year has been a rollercoaster of emotions, mainly because we have no idea what is going on with R2 in regards to how long he will be in our home. It feels like we just wrap our minds around one idea (like him staying or him going home soon) and then it changes. A couple of weeks ago I figured he would probably be out of our home by the end of…
