Introduction to this side of the boards!!

Hello all! I am no stranger to the forums, but typically stay in the foster parent support area. I thought I would introduce myself over here, because dh and I are literally days away from our official license as therapeutic foster parents! DH and I have known each other 8 years, been together for almost 4, and married for almost a year! (A year next month!! :clap: ) DH was a ward of the state, but in a kinship situation. I was adopted via closed adoption at birth and went through various levels of attachment/abandonment issues before my parents finally had enough of my teenage angsty hell and put me in an RTC/Group home for high school. So, both of us have had our own experiences with "the system" and we really want to give back! We have struggled with some infertility (no diagnoses but after 2-3 years still no baby!) and want to adopt but after we adopt we want to continue to foster for as long as we can! We are licensed for up to 3 children, 0-18, either gender with a strong preference for boys 0-12. I stay home as a childcare provider and dh works for a country club. I am also an author/blogger. We have 2 fur-babies. :) Since all of our future kiddos are expected to be special needs, I thought this area of the forums might be particularly useful and supportive for me!! So anyways, hello all and I look forward to sharing with you!!
