Foster/Adopt

in Adoption

Hi, I'm a foster adopt mom to many...currently 8...kids. Thought I'd share my blog where I write quite a lot about my life in Alaska with my foster/adopt kids. :-)

Thanks for letting me in!

    Not to be a complete buzzkill - BUT if the children in your home are still foster children, wards of the state and not adopted, you can not post their pictures on the internet.

    Hi! I have a few friends who often share your posts on Facebook (and they aren't even F/A or adoptive parents). They were really taken with "the Talk" and "Three Small Things" (I just went and looked at my FB feed). Welcome to the board!

    Sorry...didn't mean to offend. I agree with you. I was suggesting she check on the website to be sure she has removed them all. I definitely agree...this was a HUGE point made at our orientation.

    Gotcha! I had even pulled out old placement papers because I thought I remembered seeing it there and its there and in our foster home handbook.
