Oh my, this scripture hits at the why & how Carla and our family continues staying persistent in foster care. It’s so easy to give up and quit but we have a mission and vision of what God has asked of us. Stay focused, enjoy the journey and know that we are powered by something bigger than us, Christ. Come and see what God is doing by coming to our Foster Florida Village night.

These two. Deitrich is an amazing artist, so friendly, and loves waking up in the morning. Aubri is a strong leader, creative, and the best hugger. Neither one of them are allergic to animals or food. I consider their adoption a win for everyone, we get them in our family but they don’t get any of our bad genetics 😂 so proud of these two!! 4th and 5th grade. #mullinspartyof6 #adoption #fostercare #fostercareadoption #fostercareawareness #fostercareis #fostercare — view on Instagram https://ift.tt/2nCYKoD

It’s amazing how quickly plans change in #fostercare. A #fostermama has to be completely flexible to put the needs of a child first, but others in a case seem to only look at what’s convenient. Every placement change a child experiences causes anxiety when trauma has already caused instability. The removal itself is trauma. We don’t know what’s going to happen so all we do is keep on loving in the moment. #ThisIsFosterCare #fostering #fosteradopt #fostercareis #fostadopt #fosterfamily #fosterlove #fostercarelove #fostercareadoption #fosterparenting #fostermom #fosterkids #fosterkid #gettooattached #fostercareishard #fosterparents https://www.instagram.com/p/CNq4H34hmbu/?igshid=10i0noo73yjs4

A BABY’S SMILE MELTS THE STRESS AWAY! So much going on. The #fosterbaby’s case is in upheaval with a special hearing to move him to a new #fosterfamily that is closer to his parents. Health issues plague the little guy so he needs to see specialists. But that smile brightens any stressful day. What are you stressed about? #fostercare #fostering #fostercareis #fosterlove #fostercarelove #fosterparenting #fostermama #thisisfostercare #gettooattached #fostercareishard #fosterparents #babyboy #babysmiles #crawlingbaby #crawler (at Austin, Texas) https://www.instagram.com/p/CNtP_ezBcpB/?igshid=1tbmgxm7shbnj

You disrupted our life, little one! Our family was in a rhythm - a comfortable rhythm. We could feel our life beginning to normalize in spite of the trauma. But you were just what our family needed!. You may bring a change in our routines, but you bring out flexibility and adaptability. You may be a lot to handle sometimes, but you bring out the caring, nurturing side of us. Some may say: “you are lucky to have us.” But, little one, we say: “WE are blessed to have YOU!” YOU are what WE needed. #fostercare #fostering #fosteradopt #fostercareis #fostadopt #fosterfamily #fosterlove #fostercarelove #fostercareadoption #fostercareawareness #fosterparenting #fosterkids #fosterkid #thisisfostercare #gettooattached #fostercareishard #fosterthefamily #fosterparents https://www.instagram.com/p/CNWFcKkhhrf/?igshid=1ablcdw9dd15t

You have stolen our hearts little one! You are one of us. But the reality is that you are not ours. You are His, and He has a plan for your future. And no matter when that plan has you leaving our family, you will take a piece of us with you. We love you so so much!!! #fostercare #fostering #fosteradopt #fostercareis #fostadopt #fosterlove #fostercarelove #fostercareadoption #fosterparenting #fosterkids #fosterkid #thisisfostercare #babyboy #happybaby #babylove #red #gettooattached #fosterbaby #fostercareishard #fosterparents https://www.instagram.com/p/CMTRO61BX5y/?igshid=1erlhj2qrrkg6

We survived the great #texassnow storm of 2021! And I’m even going so far to say that we THRIVED as a #fosterfamily. -Even with the electricity going on & off every 3 minutes. -Even as we huddled together in one room. -Even with zero capability to use electronics. We had no arguments! Families stick together in the hard times! We kicked #trauma’s butt! #snowpocalypse #snowmageddon #fostercare #fostering #fosteradopt #fostercareis #fostadopt #fosterlove #fostercarelove #fostercareadoption #fosterparenting #fostermom #fostermama #fosterkids #fosterkid #thisisfostercare #gettooattached #fosterparents (at Austin, Texas) https://www.instagram.com/p/CMQrz8zhvRj/?igshid=1b1ytpam3zfzh

WHAT I WISH I’D KNOWN... I wish I’d known how in utero #trauma affects a child sometimes for a lifetime. I wish I’d known how in utero alcohol/drug exposure and #FASD can mimic so many other conditions. I wish I’d known how vital #attachment and connection is for a neglected child. I wish I’d known that I could take family leave for placement of #fosterkids. I wish I’d known that #timeindiscipline is so much more effective for hurt children than time-out. I wish I’d known how (mis)behavior is how a hurt child communicates a need. What do you wish you’d known before becoming a #fosterparent? #fostercare #fostering #fosteradopt #fostercareis #fostadopt #fosterfamily #fosterlove #fostercarelove #fostercareadoption #fostercareawareness #fostermom #fostermother #fostermama #fosterkid #thisisfostercare #gettooattached #fostercareishard #fostercareisworthit #fosterparents https://www.instagram.com/p/CL-nhX0hLAU/?igshid=3khzcx89zcek

DELAYS! Nothing is ever quick in #fostercare. Missing paperwork. Court continuances. Overextended case workers. Relapse. And these delays just keep kids languishing in the system. Postponing permanence for children whose past and future have been so uncertain. After 2 months, and 2 court hearings - absolutely nothing has been decided. Will the child stay here or be moved to another county closer to the parents? No answers. Just waiting. Savoring the moments. Do you see delays in your children’s cases? #fostering #fosteradopt #fostercareis #fostadopt #fosterfamily #fosterlove #fostercarelove #fostercareadoption #fostercareawareness #fostermom #fostermother #fostermama #fosterkids #fosterkid #thisisfostercare #gettooattached #fostercareishard #fostercareisworthit #fosterparents https://www.instagram.com/p/CLvVbMGhpry/?igshid=19gm2aakd82j0

Court dates don’t look the same in 2021. Being virtual doesn’t make it easier. Hurt will still be center stage. Families will be broken and others created. Tomorrow a child’s story will be told. A decision will be made. Will a young mother be able to complete family services with her child? Or will the child remain separated from her? A child’s future is uncertain and hangs in the balance. Please pray for wise decisions. Decisions that are truly in the best interest of the child. #fostercare #fostering #fostercareis #fosterfamily #fosterlove #fostercarelove #fostercareawareness #fostermom #fostermother #fostermama #fosterkids #fosterkid #thisisfostercare #gettooattached #fostercareishard #fostercareisworthit #fosterparents #court #courthouse #courthearing #casa https://www.instagram.com/p/CJ9-x8mBU48/?igshid=1uq26tnifvx38

Baby snuggles are the best! At night, just me and baby. Yes, I’ll #gettooattached. But this baby misses his mommy. I can see it in his little face and hear it in his cries. I’m unfamiliar. My home is unfamiliar. He will go back and forth. He will be confused, but I will nurture and comfort him throughout the roller coaster. My feelings and emotions are secondary to his. Because I am a #fosterparent. #fostercare #fostering #fosteradopt #fostercareis #fostadopt #fosterfamily #fosterlove #fostercarelove #fostercareadoption #fostercareawareness #fostermom #fostermother #fostermama #fosterkids #fosterkid #thisisfostercare #fostercareishard #fostercareisworthit #fosterthefamily #fosterparents #babysnuggles #lovewhatmatters https://www.instagram.com/p/CJul5lKhIWw/?igshid=lctupozhmccj
