How They Arrive
Foster children don’t all arrive sobbing and hysterical, despite what’s sometimes shared. Many times foster children arrive remarkably NORMAL, despite what they’ve been through. They talk, laugh, play, enjoy the new attention of the family and run and explore their new home. Of course, some cry. Who wouldn’t? Welcoming a new child always involves some unsettled feelings of what it may be like, though mostly our first days have been just fine in our 40 placements I share about in this blog.

Helping foster parents beat the odds!
Nationally, more than half of foster parents quit fostering within the first year, with another significant dip in the second year. No matter how many wonderful families step up with big hearts and good intentions, it will never be enough to meet the demand if only 40% continue after the first year. We must invest in foster families, so that children have amazing parents they deserve!
