Who We Are

We’re just a couple of kids trying to figure out this thing called life.

We fell in love, got married, and recently adopted our two amazing kiddos through foster care.

We wanted to create a blog to share our journey with others. We realized that there are tons of blogs about being parents, having biological children, and adopting kids — but surprisingly not a lot concerning foster care or more specifically the foster care process.

Our hope is that this blog can be a source of candid information and encouragement for others who are considering becoming foster parents. We will also be posting about life in general – because… blogging.
