expense for us

Me again,

Our expenses to adopt were about $1000 per child which WA state reimbursed to us 2 weeks later. FREE CHILDREN

Not to mention being reimbursed every month for being foster parents. They qualified under the special needs adoption (because they could not be returned to their birth parent--aka termination) so they qualified for adoption support and we also get State medical as a secondary coverage. win/win situation.

The only real risk in foster/adoption is that you won't be able to finalize a placement--which did happen to us once. But it wouldn't stop me from doing it...life is full of risks and love only happens when you stick your neck out there.

Email me if you are considering foster/adoption and I will answer your questions based upon my experience.
