Hi we are the K family!
Our motto is Do Not Panic! Why because we are on the journey that scares us! Yes we are going through the process in order for us to foster/adopt a child. It is such a huge step for us that it is scary.
This blog is for both of us to write down how we feel but also to let others know that it is okay to panic, to feel fear and to be unsure. We all go through this, it is normal.
Our journey started 9 years ago, we talked about adoption but we tried to have our own. Finally we decided that the normal route wasnt happening so we decided in adoption.
My hubby let’s call him Mr. Childatheart, he grew up knowing a lot of kids that were fosters. He became friends with a few and always felt like he needed to help and didnt know how. So one day he made a promise to himself. That when he could he would foster/adopt children because they need love and nurturing too.
I on the other hand never thought of fostering just adopting. I as almost every woman wants to have her own child. Being married to Mr. Childatheart I have read and researched and now believe that yes, there are more ways then 1 to become parents.
To us we would love to adopt but our primary reason for fostering is that we have an opportunity to help a child.
This blog will be about research, articles, books movies etc.. that we have read, seen, to help us with the process and better understand our roles as foster parents.
Thank you for taking your time to come to our blog, please subscribe and we hope our journey will help you better understand the fostering system.
If you questions please ask, we might not have the answers but we will do our best to answer them or give you links on where you can go to ask.
Remember
DO NOT PANIC!
