Thanks! I am okay pretty used to kids coming and going here. My hubby gets pretty weary though and we would really like another forever. Just have to keep trusting that they will find us when the time comes.

So exciting about getting shown again. We had a neighbor with a daughter with sickle cell, she was such a sweetie. For the most part she lives a normal life but when the sickle cell flairs up it is really hard and she is in a lot of pain. She would spike a high fever and spend a couple days in the hospital.

When you do foster care exposure issues are a given so they don't scare us too much.

Good luck and hope you find your match soon.
