Becoming Home: The Unexpected Journey as a Foster Parent (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798870685434)

This isn't a book about the horror stories often associated with foster parenting, nor is it an account of the many children who passed through my home. Rather, it is an authentic, firsthand account from a mother's perspective, detailing the realities of the foster parent journey. I share everything from the initial decision to foster children, to the transformational process of becoming a foster parent, and how this monumental and absolutely rewarding decision can alter your life and your home.

These are the unspoken truths I learned throughout the process - the swirling emotions, the lingering fears, the poignant triumphs, and even the moments of sheer absurdity. Often, prospective foster parents are handed booklets outlining what the system expects of them, with only a fleeting mention of how the experience can reshape us as individuals and families. In this book, I hope to explain what to actually expect from the inside out, offering insights not typically found in conventional guidebooks.
