Blessings

On October 16,2011, at 11:30 p.m. Shane and I got a call asking if we would be willing to take in an 8 month old baby boy through the foster care program. We felt good about it and said yes. At 12:30 a.m. October 17, 2011, we got to meet the beautiful blonde hair, blue eyed foster baby. He couldn't sit, crawl, or stand when we got him. He didn't like to be held or cuddled and wouldn't fall asleep while holding him. We all got very attached and bonded quickly. Shane and I love him like he is our own. Soon after we had him he learned how to sit and stand with help. He grew so much, as did we. He taught our little family many things that we will always be grateful for. We had him for almost 11 weeks. By the time he left our home he was doing the army crawl and had just got 2 bottom teeth. He was starting to laugh a lot and really show his personality and was saying dada and mama. He was a huge blessing in our lives and we will always love him.
