“And whatever you do, don’t put plastic on your pillows or mattresses.”  Nicole was the foster parent trainer in our foster parent class and I wanted to be her.  “They’re not foster kids – they’re kids who happen to be in foster care.” <\/p>\n

When Jason and I signed up for the training class, this is what I envisioned my family would look like.  A house full of kids who called me mom despite our genetic differences.  So far, God has had a different plan for our family<\/a>, but we’re still certified and Nicole’s refrain is, “So, do you want to take more kids?” <\/p>\n

Shortly after she gave birth to the one biological child she thought she’d never have, she became a lawyer in order to work to defend kids in the system.  She has her sights on systemic change and I still want to be her.<\/p>\n
