Early one morning I get a call from my sister. Her granddaughter was taken into DHS custody. Could we take her?
God had placed a desire within my heart to foster parent several years back. I had checked into it and didn't like the fact that they would be invading my own children's lives. I decided not to pursue it. Here we were, do we take her or not. Yes, of course! So we began our journey into the world of foster care.
My great niece stayed with us for about 8 months. She returned to her home. Meanwhile, God began to speak to me about opening our home up for other children. I remember searching the pages of children posted on the Internet photo listings. Mike said, "why do you keep looking at them?" My reply, " I feel like if I don't no one will." God began to give me his heart.
