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!

Our time with Itty Bitty seems so short since she's with her parents most of the time. This is the good part of foster care. They put her in care voluntarily and they are learning how to take care of her medical needs. She is a healthy f@ilure t0 thrive baby (if you've ever heard such a thing). She is not a drug baby (as some have asked) she just has no sucking reflex. They will work with the dr's getting speech therapy for her and hopefully by the time she's ready for solids...she'll be taking them by mouth. Sprout is unaffected by Itty Bitty being here. He is a happy, healthy boy and SO determined to 'hang with the big kids'. He is pulling himself up on ANYTHING he can and just growing WAY too fast!!! 8 month update coming later today... :)
