Today we wanted to talk a little about all the waiting of foster care & adoption. It's one of the most common and most frustrating parts about the foster/adoptive process and we hope our conversation gives you some ideas for how to cope with the stress and discouragement of waiting for what's next.

Join us as we listen to Kylar Christison's story about how he became a kinship & adoptive father for his little boy. It was great to hear Kylar's perspective about how he helped his child transition from living with his grandparents to becoming a member of Kylar's family forever.

We had a great conversation with Ade’s friend Corey Ging about adoption, the unknown, and the story of how his little boy entered, left, and reentered the foster care system and has now found his forever family with the Gings.
