new members of my family...

well... for now they're just temporary... and i'm not talking about new pets either...

about a month ago, my mom decided that since her disability claim was denied again, she would have to find a way to go back to work... and seeing as how she can't really do the "normal" type jobs that fully healthy people can do, she decided to do something she knows she's great at... being a mom... so she put in her paperwork to be a foster parent...

in the county where she lives, there are more foster children than foster parents, leaving lots of kids in state wards... so her paperwork was expedited, and this week, she was brought two adorable little kids... a brother and sister, 3 and 2... she will have them for at least 3 months, while an investigation into their mom is conducted... if the investigation doesn't go well for the mother, my mom could have the kids for quite some time...

she was really hoping not to get ones that young, but she's so happy to have them... and hopes that she's able to make this difficult time for the kids a little easier...
