First Few Calls from In-Take

We have received our first calls from in-take. The woman's name is Melissa and she is incredibly sweet! I really like her. Unfortunately we had to pass up the first two calls but we are very close to having another member(s) of our family. We are hoping the third call is the charm.

The first call we had to turn down because it was for a family of four children. ages 11 months to 6 years old. That was a little much for us. The second call was perfect, it was for a 4 year old girl and a 16 month old boy, but they had 2 visitations each week in the middle of the day. There was no way we could do that realistically.

I am hoping we get one or two children, that are traditional foster care children (not special needs or heavy on the behavioral problems), who are headed toward permanency rather than reunification. Also, having 16mths and 4 years old would be totally perfect because that way Lily can be the oldest and a role model for the children. We will see who needs help and what comes up!
