I apologize. I had absolutely NO intention of driving you crazy (Lynee)!!! :) If I say crazy...I mean CRAZZZZZZZZZZYYY!!! :) I woke up this morning and made my rounds to get each child where they needed to be at the allotted time. While on my way to pick everyone up, I got a phone call. The question was..."are you willing to take 2 boys". The answer...without ANY other questions..."YYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSS!". OK, I lied. Reality set in and I was curious. Unfortunately, the home finder had NO answers. The only thing I knew was there were 2 boys, brothers, who needed a home. Ages would come eventually but they're always off anyway. SO...I agreed to take them knowing they were around 2 1/2 and 19 months. No names. No history. That's it. But if you're a foster parent...sometimes that's all you get. I waited for a phone call telling me when and where to pick them up. That came while my family and I were out to lunch...literally. We went out to eat and (of course) in the middle of the meal...the phone rings. I got a bit more info. Names. That's it. They were placed a few days ago but for some reason they went into emergency care. I'm not sure why I wasn't called then but I can only guess it's because of their older brother. Originally, he (the oldest boy) was placed with brother #2 into one home and brother #3 was placed alone in a another home. Again...not sure why. But I was probably not called because of older brother's age. He (oldest boy) is still within our age limit on our adoption home study but not on our fostering home study. Since they came into care the oldest boy has since been moved into a different foster home (alone). SO...I meet the home finder to pick up these boys (the younger 2) and from minute one I was smitten.

(They really need 'blog' names so I'm open to suggestions. I'd like to 'blog' name all 3 because I think there will most likely be doing sibling visits so HELP!!!! Name away...)

Anyway, picking them up went well. It took a few minutes to get Boy 2 into the car but Boy 3 came willingly with no tears. Getting them home and settled into a house that had NOTHING ready for them...another story. Even though I have BINS of clothes from Felix there is almost NOTHING that I can use for these boys. Guess who's going shopping!!!!!! :) After a family dinner and a bath...they went down for the night. There was a few tears but I'm sure we'll settle into a routine. Boy #2 fell asleep in my arms. :) So, (Lynee), I hope that satisfies your curiosity :) I hope you appreciate the fact that I'm losing precious minutes of sleep to update :)
Pray for these babies. I have NO CLUE what to expect but they have a bit of a rough
road ahead. More soon.... Until then...NAME AWAY!!!
