We wound up closing our home to foster care shortly after coming home. We were due for quarterly monitoring and without any foster placements anyway, we just wanted to focus on our new baby girl and making sure that things were going well with our kids with all the new changes and adjustments. Our foster care agency called us asking if we wanted a newborn and Hubby told them that we were thinking about closing our home. They said that with bringing a newborn home, they did see that we were busy. We also didn't have anymore van space. I just wanted to be with our kids and be a family without new littles coming and going, caseworker visits and all the birthparent visits and paperwork. I felt that we had enough changes with the girls adoption and then the birth of Catherine that we just needed to be our own little family for awhile. So, we felt good about our decision and felt that we just needed to focus on our current kids and that if God wanted us to have more children, we would leave the possbility open.
That's the story of how our family came to be thus far...
