It has been raining a lot here lately. I told my kids they could build an inside fort and they said they didn't know how. I guess none of their foster parents ever let them build one before. After we got it built, they played in...

girlgonefishing That would be REALLY nice. I speak very good spanish already but, I learned German in the 6th grade and have forgotten all of it except for counting. I would love to be able to learn it again.

girlgonefishing My grandson was that way with Baby Einstein. He would get upset at 6 months if you turned off the TV.

girlgonefishing I agree. Too much TV can be a bad thing but, a little bit of the educational TV every day has helped my kids a lot.

girlgonefishing Good for you ladyhope. I can't imagine not being allowed to build one. It's not like it's hard to clean up afterwards.

girlgonefishing The five of mine that were fort building are age 3 to 18. It was a really good way to have them all playing together at the same time.

We adopted 2 boys 3 years ago and now we are adopting 3 more kids. We have been fostering them for almost a year now and they are finally adoptable. It should take about 3 months and then they are ours!!! Would you adopt?

girlgonefishing It's a good thing that you were able to notice that on your own. Not all foster parents are good ones. The kids I have now have been to three really bad foster homes and are so excited that they are finally getting adopted. They really want to stay here...

girlgonefishing Too funny Christmas2006. I wish my mother in law was as supportive. We get "Where are you going to put them" "Are you sure you can afford this". We say "We've had them for a year if we didn't have a place to put them and the money to raise them, wouldn't we...

girlgonefishing That's exactly what I did. I have two bio children who are grown and gone. They are always there for their new siblings and make the best brother and sister for them.

It's a boy. We got him when he was 2 days old. He is 6 weeks old now. He is so cute and we are so in love with him it's not even funny. For those of you who think that foster parents get paid too much, it's not true. We get 15...
