I know I haven't been around lately. Busy growing a family. Went from no kids to 4 kids in about 6 months. So that meant we had to finally buy a family hauler. Thought I would share with you guys.

Joe and I became foster parents, and we gradually took in 4 foster kids over 6 months. Their ages when we got them were 3 days, 16 months, 16 years and 18 years. So quite a range! The kids love the DVD system and the fact that the can listen to what they want.

We are in the process of adopting all these kids. Now if I could only get them to love Fords like Joe and I do we will be good. :) They thought we should have looked into something foreign, and we did a bit, but just didnt' find anything we liked as much as the Taurus X. We took a 4 hour road trip with it, and they were quite pleased, even with my oldest in the back who is almost 6 foot tall.

18 year old foster kid? Do you want to adopt a 42 year old as well :D

Nice that you are giving those kids a good home :)

Be careful, I used to be a foster kid. :p

I remember a couple of foster homes being nice and many not so. It takes a lot of courage and compassion to be a good foster parent.

I commend you for your efforts. :)

Thanks Driller. We completed the adoption of the above 4 kids, but now we are working on adopting a 5th. We sure are crazy, but it's great being able to give these kids a home, even if they do hate us sometimes for "just being parents"

Nice work! Thanks for giving those kids a good home. Having three adopted siblings myself, I can relate.

And welcome back! (again!) :D
