Foster Care Update

Well, it has been quite awhile since we have gotten any information but we finally got an email yesterday and feels like we are back on track to getting our foster care license. Our area recently got two new licensors in the last month and then we also had all of the snow, holidays, and rain and flooding. When we finally got in touch (by email) with one of them she said that we still needed to do the list of paperwork. I let her know that we did it all and gave it to the social worker who did our homestudy so she said that she would look for it. That was LAST Tuesday.

Yesterday, we got another email from the other licensor and it looks like she is going to be ours. She said that there seemed to be some missing paperwork so once again I let her know who we gave it to and she is on the hunt for it. She also said to email her again if we haven't heard from her by Friday. I feel like we are finally headed forward again and will hopefully be able to have her come see our house in the next week or two.

So the process continues and we are being patient but also excited that we seem to be mocing forward again. Please pray that they find our paperwork. It has been a concern for me since the social worker who did our homestudy was a temp and was "done" working the day after her last visit with us. Thankfully I do have copies of all of it so we won't have to redo it and the new licensor also said that she has both of our fingerprint results so that big hurdle is covered.

Thank you all for your support and prayers. They mean a lot to us!

I'm glad to read that the process is moving forward again. I'm sure that those delays have been a bit frustrating. I'll keep your family in my prayers.

UGH. Frustrating about the paperwork.

But that's great you're in contact with someone who seems to have their act together!!!
