Dh and I have been fostering for the last 7 years. We have had 13 placements and at the moment do not have any in home. Due to two dd's being pregnant (one is a former foster we adopted) we needed to devote energy and time to them.

DH and I have been fostering for 10 years. We have had 42 placements. We have 3 current placements in our home at this time. Two previous foster kids live with us also. Would love to adopt these two but mom is still in the picture.

We're foster parents since June 2008. We've had four placements and are in the process of adopting our second placement who is now 21 months.
