You know you’re a foster parent when…

  • Your personal stash of childrens clothing rivals that of the local thrift store.
  • You get confused and/or nasty looks from people when they see that you have many children that look like they come from different baby daddies
  • You watch your 2-week placement go from crib to junior high.
  • The speed dial numbers on your phone consist of your licensing worker, case manager, therapists, schools, etc. rather than family and friends.
  • Your heart skips a beat every time the phone rings when you have an open bed.
  • Your heart is bigger than your brain.
