How long have you been FP?
How many placements have you had?

What age range/gender/ethnicity does it say you want on your license (we all know that changes when a fp gets a call ;) )
If you could change one thing you did in the beginning of being a FP what would it be?
What wouldn't you change?
Have you adopted through FC or Are you wanting to?
If so, what age range?
If you already are placed with adoptable/adopted child how long did it take for said child to get placed with you?

Our son was 2 (two months away from three)
Our daughter was 3 (a month away from four) when they where placed with us. They moved in on June 8, 2012 and finalized on May 31, 2013
Licensing, two placements, Tpr, finalization, and even receiving the new birth certificates literally took one year and two months.

County or agency? Which one? Agency the first time, county this time. How long have you been FP?Just ove two yearsHow many placements have you had?OneWhat's your favorite age range?What age range/gender/ethnicity does it say you want on your license (we all know that changes when a fp gets a call ;) )We were open to 8 and under. This time we only want under 2, preferably under 1. We were open to either gender, and any race except asian (Grandpa fought in WWII and had bad associations. Grandpa has passed, so we no longer have that restriction)If you could change one thing you did in the beginning of being a FP what would it be?Our first go-round in foster care went well. Our child ended up being medically fragile. He technically should have gone to a therapeutic home. What wouldn't you change? Lots of email communication with the social workers. It made everything go easier. My workers admitted that they would cut and paste my updates into their reports. Have you adopted through FC or Are you wanting to?Yes. We were matched when he was 10weeks, and finalized at 19 months. We want to adopt a second, preferably under 1. If so, what age range? If you already are placed with adoptable/adopted child how long did it take for said child to get placed with you?We were licensed for less than a week when we got the call. We were the couple that we hated during modules (infant, direct from hospital, and matched right away)
