Tomorrow is the first day of a new life around here for us. Tomorrow, I will no longer be the mama of three, but four. Many of you know that Kelly and I were licensed as foster parents in early August, and we are excited that we will be taking in a precious, little 5 year old boy. His name is Jared, and his smile is infectious! Our whole family went to meet him and spend some time with him yesterday afternoon at his temporary placement. While talking to Jared's case worker, he and the children played outside on the playground. They were all running and playing together like that had been friends forever! We spent last night setting up another bed in the boys' room, getting clothes out and washed, and the boys gathered several toys together for him. We will be picking him up tomorrow afternoon. Please pray for our whole family as we transition into this new chapter of our lives. Pray that we will be a blessing to Jared, and he to us!
