Sometimes, ideas are just abstract in your mind... That is how our foster care change has been to me. But yesterday, our social worker told us that she was submitting our license change to her supervisor who will decide our fate in this regard - approved or not approved. So this idea went from an abstract idea to potential reality.
Kind of funny the emotions that it brings up in your heart when you realize that what you have talked about and thought about for a while may actually become a reality.
Having adopted already, I have an idea what it must be like for a foster mother. We took Austin from a foster mother... And I know she was sad. But now as I face the reality of possibly being a foster mother myself and giving up children after having them for a while, it is a bit scary!
But I'm really excited to. I think God has brought us to this point with a definite plan in mind. And I'm really interested to see where our lives go from here.
I don't when we will bring another little one into our home. But I am really looking forward to the opportunity that lies before us!
