Floored. Speechless. This, y’all, is what the body of Christ looks like. We haven’t asked for help in this way and we really really really hate doing so. But this care package from @elevationchurch arrived this morning. We’re all one family, church memberships/attendance should never matter. When this season passes, we hope to give back infinitely more than we have been blessed to receive. (And a little forced to accept 😜) Thank you Elevation from this really really grateful @summitrdu family. . . . #fosterdad #fostering #fostercare #fosterparents #fosterparenting #adoption #adoptiondad #adopt #adoptionjourney #adoptionblog #adoptionawareness #fostercareadoption #adoptioncommunity #adoptiveparents #adoptionrocks #dadblog #dadblogger #instadad

One of the best benefits of the #foster #adoptive journey has nothing to do with the kids.

We haven’t had a lot of things to be excited about on this journey. Today, we’ve had TWO!!!! One, I’m going to hold close for a bit. The other, is that after being told there are no beds at our facility of choice.. a spot suddenly opened up tonight!!!!!!!!!!!! Don’t judge the photo, was super eager to get on the road to see him before he left!!! . . . #adoption #fostercare #adoptivedad #adoptionjourney #adoptionrocks #adopting #fosterparent #fosterdad #fostercarer #dadlife #parenting #trauma #traumarecovery #traumainformed #traumahealing #traumatherapy #traumasurvivor #healingtrauma #trauma #mentalhealth #mentalhealthrecovery #mentalhealthwarrior #dadblog #dadblogger #childrensmentalhealth #instadad
