4 kids - 1 week - Placement #2 begins in 1 hour

Well, we did it...we let go of our first placement - 3 kiddos who have forever changed our life!  We learned so much from them and are very thankful that they were our first kids.  We will love them forever and pray for them to have a peaceful return with their birth parents.

This morning, in about an hour, our second placement will be arriving.  He is a 4 year old little boy who speaks Spanish and English.  My husband already speaks Spanish and who knows if this will be my chance to finally learn it!

So now the tables have turned...it used to be 3 girls and 2 boys in the house and now it will be 2 boys and 1 girl! LOL:)  I don't know what to expect on a lot of different levels.  This placement is going to be SO different than our last one.  The biggest difference is that we don't have to have anything to do with reunification services, or so they have told us...we'll see how that goes.  Of course we'll always have to deal with the behavior following any visits, but we won't have to see all the interactions and get frustrated on those adult levels.  We'll just get to love on the kid!!!  So we shall begin a new journey and see where it leads us.

Please join us in praying for the lives of our 3 kiddos who are home now and the 1 boy who will be experiencing new emotions being moved into a place he doesn't know.
