Uh, so. As you may have noticed, the prior post was taken down. We did decide to take a foster placement of two great boys with the ultimate goal of also integrating their 3 sisters. 5 in all.
The boys are wonderful and sweet. But we have decided that we won't be able to be a permanent resource for this sib group. Micah and I have always wanted a big family and still believe that this will happen for us. But it has to happen when all members of the household are secure and healthy enough to proceed or our foundation won't be healthy.
Levi has only been with us for 4 months. I tend to forget because it seems like he's been with us forever. But he hasn't. He had a tumultuous life before he graced our home. A life wrought with constant change, little consistency and safety issues. He was doing so great we tend to forget. We tend to forget that he needs us to continue to provide that constantly same environment until he's strong enough for change. Until he's healed. We're officially putting our search for a larger family on hold. For right now he needs us the same. So the same we will be. Until he's ready.
