52: It's Not Easy Being a Foster Parent with Efton Geary

Listen Later

Have you wondered what it's like to be a Foster Parent?  Are the challenges any different from other families?

In this Episode Efton and I discuss:

  • what is was like to hear his daughters call him and his wife Mom and Dad for the first time
  • the benefits of the training that comes along with becoming a Foster Parent
  • why him and his wife feel their daughters have always been with them
  • the importance of time with your partner to 'reset' each week 
  • that your kids need to see you make mistakes and apologize in order to learn humility
  • that parenting is also about the relationship with your spouse and your marriage

    •  "If you want something bad enough, you can make it happen."-Efton Geary
