Default Anybody out there a Foster Parent or something similar?

After work today, I get to go pick up my foster baby! I just got the call today......She is 10 months and my second cousin. Please wish me luck so I can help her.........I tend to freak out when any little change occurs in my life so I am hoping I don't get all types of anxiety and stuff over this.

Bless your heart. I have a 10 month old and they are such a joy. Just take it easy and try to enjoy your time with your little cousin/new daughter. I would like to adopt 2 foster children in a few years myself.

That's great news! She is so lucky to have you. It will definitely be an adjustment. But very worth it. Good luck.

Congratulations! My two sons are adopted and we fostered them for six months prior. We've also fostered their little brother for three weeks when he was a newborn as well as one other little guy the police found wandering the streets in a diaper one night. It's hard work, but very worth it!
