Praising God that we survived something new this weekend! Last minute respite for a 12-year-old foster daughter of a friend...went well...as expected, since it was only 2 days. Maybe we're starting something new...doing a 3 hour respite again next weekend for another friend's daughter...
That is awesome! I bet it was so helpful to your friend. I had a friend that I used to do respite for ...she only took babies, so it was a little baby fix for us each time. We don't have our respite (or foster care) license anymore.
Have fun with your respite care. Plant seeds my friend, plant seeds!
My hearts desire is to live out loud, a life that reflects Jesus. Join me through word and picture
on this journey called my life. I am the Mama to 8 children, one homemade and 7 adopted, married to my handsome Knight and daily following hard after Jesus. Hope you will consider me your friend.

Hi Karen;
That is awesome! I bet it was so helpful to your friend. I had a friend that I used to do respite for ...she only took babies, so it was a little baby fix for us each time. We don't have our respite (or foster care) license anymore.
Have fun with your respite care. Plant seeds my friend, plant seeds!
