His "side of the story" from our first time as foster parents (my own reflections are here)

What we needed in our marriage to be a great foster family

What Millennials can do if they're bored/annoyed/left empty by "Instagram life" (don't get too mad at us! ;)) + our favorite blow-it-outta-the-water account: @fostermoms

How to support/connect with foster parents
