I've been reading your blog off and on and I'm so impressed with your work with the foster care program. I can see it is a very difficult job but your love for the children really shines through. The world needs more people as caring as you.Ashley Hastyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11613733944981774253noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1688916779717257492.post-65187743804021538042010-05-19T07:21:05.573-05:002010-05-19T07:21:05.573-05:00Great to know!

I'm loving your blog because I'm getting so many great life tips from it! Keep sharing... I'm like a sponge! :)Stephaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07584482112174498112noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1688916779717257492.post-49317703204891252962010-05-19T07:09:30.874-05:002010-05-19T07:09:30.874-05:00Oh, how I wish we were neighbors!

I've lamented before that even though our case worker is amazing and we're memebers of our local foster parent organization, there really isn't an opportunity to connect with others and I don't personally know any other foster parents. <br /><br />We're trying to get some of our family registered as natural helpers, but we don't want to constantly burden them... this isn't their heart like it is for us. <br /><br />I pray for foster parent friends like the Popps!<br /><br />Oh, and you're dead on with the disruption bits. Thanks for seeing that.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1688916779717257492.post-28535506373488673672010-05-18T17:02:09.629-05:002010-05-18T17:02:09.629-05:00Have fun with the extra two kiddos!

I think a lot of times people feel that being a respite home isn't important, but YES it is. Until we got the girls last week, we had talked about opening our home up just for respite, but God had other plans!Kyleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16831000901872188471noreply@blogger.com
