Since both of us are now actually mentioning to people that we want to do foster care, I'm getting excited. When I'm just talking or thinking about something it doesn't make it very real. When my husband starts talking about it, you know it's more of a reality.
I was going through some half made tiny baby diapers and thinking that I need to finish them up and make more! I've got some big enough for a 2 mo old but not for an itty bitty. Not that we would only get itty bitties but I want to be prepared!
I hope that we don't get denied because of our house size. It's only two beds but we would keep the baby in our room which is allowed until the child is one year. I don't know if they would then take the child or if we would be able to see out the end of their case if we moved one of our kids into our room for a few months to see a child through their time in the system.
I guess this is what it's like for people who try to get pregnant. Both my kids were surprises so I never experienced that anticipation of trying to get pregnant. I really would love a third baby of our own, but I'm happy to be a temporary mommy to a third baby over and over again. I just need to not want to keep all of them!!
