So, several people have asked me lately how our foster care process is going...so I thought I'd give a quick update about it here. We finished all the classes about a month ago and have had our fire inspection, physicals, TB tests, and home visit. Chris did his CPR training last week (I am required to have it for work anyways). So, all that's left is our office visit with our social worker which is scheduled for the middle of June. Then, all the licensing information is sent to the "big-wigs" (actually, Chris and I just realized we don't know where it goes...just somewhere important!). It usually takes about 60 days for this to be processed but then we should be licensed. So, it's looking like we could potentially be placed with a child sometime in August.
At first we thought we wanted to be placed with a younger child...baby through age 4. But, after going through all the classes, we have decided that we are willing to take up to 5th grade (no middle or high school...yikes!). So, if you think of it, pray that the Lord is preparing both us and the child who will be placed in our home!
