Upcoming Court Date

So, this whole blog thing is new to me and I am not sure why I started it, but I thought what the heck, I will give it a try.

What to share with people that might read this from all over the world?

How about I tell you all what is up and coming in our lives?

We are currently in the process to become Foster Parents. We have three children that go to church with us, that we are paticularly interested in.

We are truly interested in adopting these children. Their case goes before the judge on Weds the 20th to decide if parental rights are to be terminated. If they are not, we are hoping to have them for the 6 months until the next court date. If they are terminated, we are going to be presented to the judge as recommendation from the State worker to become their adopted parents.

So, needless to say there is a lot riding on this court date on Weds. To be honest, I was kinda scared at first. But, deep down, I just feel like these kids are supposed to be ours.

In any case, for them to come to us as future adoptable kids, or to take care of them in Foster Care, we will probably have them in our home within the next month. So, we will go from a family of three to a family of six. I will be the foster mom of three kids in school. Kinda scary, but also super exciting.

Our quiet home is about to get noisy.

Our Home

Here is a picture of our new home. We are currently a family of four( Mark, Me, Mark's Mom, and our dog Wiley.) I think we are soon to fill these walls with 3 school age children and Mark's brother and his wife, Trent and Emily.
Wow, I guess I better savor my quiet time now huh?
