Today, I’d like to introduce all of you to a fellow foster parent that was “Called to Foster.”
Momma is someone that I “met” online; however, by chatting through email discovered some connections in real life. She used to live in my hometown and now, after moving, is a neighbor to a blog friend I met at Bloggy Boot Camp last October. (Check out Rachel’s Quirky Momma website if you have toddlers or preschoolers – lots of fun activities!)
I LOVE Momma’s Called to Foster website! You can tell she’s a journalist and talented writer. She has an incredible talent to write about what is happening in her life as a foster parent and then ties it together with applicable tips on how to make foster parenting a bit easier. Here are some of my favorite posts!
Foster Care FAQ’s – Answers to basic questions for those considering becoming foster parents.
It Takes a Village to Raise a Foster Child – How anyone can become part of the village to help children in foster care.
10 Pre-Placement Questions – A list of things you may want to ask when you receive “the call”. [I added 2 more in the comments]
Losing “Home” – A beautiful comparison relating the selling of her grandparents’ home to children leaving their homes.
Giving “Guilt Love” on the Harder Days – I could really relate to this heart-breaking story of when a foster child just doesn’t fit in your family. [It brought me to tears and really made me miss my Blondie]
Have you found any websites that you’d like to share?
