ONLY 3 WEEKS AWAY

Soo we start foster care training THIS SATURDAY!!! and then the last day is the 19th!!! Then after that we will have a home inspection and hopefully get a kid placed in our home!!!!!!!! I CAN'T WAIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am so excited!! You should see the bedroom. I will put a picture up of it!! It looks like I have a baby. I also have clothes in all sizes for a boy and girl. I have a portable high chair, 1 car seat, johns parents gave us a crib and a baby carseat (both which are old) but better than NOTHING! I seriously cannot wait to get a child!! Who knows...we could get 2 right away! Or we could get 1....hopefully sooner than later. After our training on the 19th we are going to Crystal beach down near galveston with johns family. They rented a beach house so we are going there for like our last time as kidless couple lol. Then when we come back we should get the home inspection and hopefully get approved and placed with a kid!! YAAAAAAAAAY!!! Anyway!! Not much else has been going on. Just working...trying to fix up the house haha kind of. I have been babysitting Marissa a lot. She is from my day care and well she's my baby. She's 18 months old. I love her! Welp I dunno what else to talk about. Just though I'd do a short update!!

Hey Brenna! Thanks for leaving a comment! I'm so glad you guys are fostering! It's fun to see other young Christian couples doing this! We are super excited to begin our training on Saturday (5 weeks of training) and start the whole process! We will have 0-18 months and just do one for now. We are working through a Christian agency that is contracting with the state. So, we have a great team to work with!

Shoot me an email at aubrey@blessingsandbows.com.

I'd love to keep in touch! Good luck finishing up your training! I hope you get a baby super soon!!

What an exciting undertaking. I know a couple of family friends back home who foster, and it is very rewarding, but very very emotionally tough. Good Luck!
