I tweeted last wed/ thursday, I believe it was… that david and I are considering fostering a kid and then adopting it. I got no responses lol.( I can’t remember which day I went to mom”s..but that was the day)
We have talked about the possibility of adopting before..but not really so seriously as we are right now. The weirdest thing was my mom just randomly said “You should see about doing foster care” I was like well yeah, but I don’t want to get attached to some little one and then they don’t get to stay with me in the long run.
I didn’t know that you can actually foster care a child and then adopt that child in the long run. My mom knew a bit more than I did on the subject, because I have a 2nd cousin who has done this with SIX children! (3 brothers, 2 sisters and an only child) She knew each time that she had a 99% chance of getting to adopt them in the long run. You can even pick the age rages/sex of child/etc.
I want a little girl around the age of 2 up to 5ish.I might consider a bit younger/older..but ideally 2 would be my age. David and I need to get our butts up to social services and get the ball rolling as well.
I fully believe that a child doesn’t have to grow in your tummy to grow in your heart. Apparently it isn’t ment for me to have one the regular way so to speak. I have been off the pill for a couple of years, and over my cervical cancer/hpv even longer. I know i took that fertility test a while back, but maybe the problem doesn’t lie with me you know?
Thats why i’m wanting to name a new domain. to be more of a mommy/frugal/adoption/ whatever blog. that way it’s already named and i can use it whenever! so any name suggestions would be appreciated.
I will keep you all updated!
