Making a difference...One Starfish at a time

Our family started fostering back in 2005. We have been blessed to love on many babies. There has been many twists and turns throughout our journey and in December of 2010 we were called for placement of a newborn baby boy. His biological mother worked a case plan for 18 months and after 23 months she surrendered her rights and we adopted 'Sprout' in December of 2012. Our faith has been tried and tested and we are still certain that God is faithful!

Sometimes I think it would be easier if I just disconnect the phone. Especially with the caller ID. I cringe when it is possibly the caseworker. Like today, for example. She called to let me know that her supervisor has approved grandma for bi weekly visits. I guess I should be glad that someone in his family wants him. It still bothers me that she didn't want him when she could have had him out of the hospital. Now that she does want him it took her 12 weeks to come around and call the case worker. I am preparing myself for him to go but of course I would love if he could stay.
Trusting God knows better than I do...

12 weeks is quick, in my opinion.

Friends of ours had their baby boy from birth. and at 18 months old, a great-aunt stepped in and said she wanted him. She'd NEVER seen him before. He was placed in her home a few months later. Forever.
