Team BLUE....in honor of the baby boy that was placed with us for Foster Care. We got the call a week ago (7.22.11) that there was a 6 week old boy who needed to be placed in a foster home for permanency.
Just a few days ago, R and I had talked about not quite being emotionally ready to start Foster Care, and decided that we might need to wait a little longer before accepting a placement. Once I heard this precious baby's story, there was no way that I could say no. Of course, I called R and he agreed. We picked him up that very afternoon at 3pm.
He doesn't have much hair - the hair he does have is very light. His eyes are blue, I hope they stay that way. He has the chunkiest cheeks I've ever seen, you just want to kiss 'em. He is such a sweet, calm, beautiful soul. In the week that we've had him, he's captured our hearts. We are so grateful for this opportunity to play a prominent role in his life for as long as the Lord allows us to do so!
