Help Wanted!

We are moving along in our process of becoming foster parents. After our CPR class this Saturday, the waiting game begins! One of the final things that we have been unable to check off our list is before and after school childcare. Our desire is to find a childcare provider that will love and invest in our children while we can't be with them, and is sensitive to the needs of foster children. It would be wonderful if this person lived in our neighborhood, as the elementary school is in the neighborhood too. We trust that our God is "able to do immeasurably more than we can ask or imagine" (Eph. 3:20), so we are trusting Him to lead us to the right caregiver! 

Would you commit to praying about this need for us? Give us some ideas if you have them too! To give you some more specifics, here are the hours that we need help: For elementary age children placed in our care, this person would provide care from 7-9am before school...Tony and/or I are home every day by 3:30pm so we won't need after school care. For middle or high school age kids, we would need someone to provide care from 2:45-3:30pm. All foster children, even teenagers, have to be supervised at all times...they can earn unsupervised time after a month in care, so the care for teenagers could be temporary. 

Thank you for praying with us! I will post more updates as we have them :)
