an unethical agency, closed countries, & brick walls – OUR SOUTH AFRICA INTERNATIONAL ADOPTION STORY
Today I am finally sharing our international adoption story of how we were led to adoption from South Africa. Our journey included a lot of brick walls, like an unethical agency, countries closing and more but it resulted in the sweetest boy being added to our family and it was worth all the effort, tears and prayers! You can find our adoption timeline here.

FOSTER CARE UPDATE & what if you don’t agree with the system? & other foster care Q&As
I wanted to share a little bit of a foster care update today and answer a couple more foster care questions I get asked. Question I will be tackling included: what do the kids call you? what does the timeline look like for going home/how much notice do you get? what if you don’t agree with the system? how much control do you have over the ages you have in your home? If you haven’t yet watched my previous foster care Q & A I would recommend doing that as well. Oh, and you can see our foster care timeline here.
