Going Good!

Past few days has been a whirl wind. As we know we had our first placement on Tuesday afternoon at 3:30 at DHS office. We had all these emotions and it happened rather quickly. Its a little girl that is 2 1/2 and has bright red curly hair. For privacy purpose only we are going to call her "little red" . She had no problems going home with us, was very willing. Did not cry much at all. That just told me she has had some many people in her life coming and going. Her emergency foster care worker was great. Even gave us a little bike for her. It was such a blessing.

Little red is awesome, she is even almost potty trained. Praise god for that!! She is very easy and has really no problems as of now. The only little bumps we have had is at bed time. Crazy as it may be, but i know that God put her in our lives. We were praying all along for the "right placement for our family" and I know that is what happened. God is so good!!!

Its been 3 days now and its getting easier as each day passes. Have not gotten my camera out but i will soon and post a few pics. Today some one blessed her with a girl power wheels car. It is amazing. pretty much in need of many clothes but i was able to buy some with the voucher i was given by DHS.

B&H have been great with her. They are being such big brothers to her. What a blessing god is to have timed this just perfect. God's timing is always the best timing. In the morning I think i will go yard sale shopping. Wow today has been a busy day, baby sitting, then t-ball in 100 degree heat took the boys to dinner and now i am ready for bed.

Until next time

Ev of Placement

We got the Call, tomorrow will be our first placement. I have all these feeling going threw my mind. What i feel like is a mother that is about to have a baby. My husband is feeling the same way. Hunter is not sure what to think. We tired to make them understand that we won't be keeping her. She is just here for a season.

Brice is been at church camp and that has made me think of him all week. I am a protector and when they are not here my mother instinct is on over drive. I know he is having fun. He is with friends this year that are such a blessing.

This placement is going to be a 2 1/2 year old girl. Not sure I will know what to do with a girl. All i know is boys. They are rough, loud, sweet, they don't get offended easily, and easy going.
No matter what, it is going to be a change in our family. Biggest change that we have had in years, maybe ever.

My Prayer is that god gives us grace and guidance and lots of wisdom. I do know this is going to be a great journey and with God leading the way.

Untill next time.
