    Today is such a special day. We got to spend time with Brian and Leslie Word. Brian may not know it but he has a special place in Adrian’s heart! Leslie and Brian have such a unique story that includes becoming parents biologically, through guardianship, international adoption, domestic adoption through foster care and not in that order. Y’all Leslie and Brian have invited us into their home as their children were sleeping... so I was a bit too quiet at the start of the podcast, thanks for loving me through my learning. (Haha)Leslie has so much knowledge and a desire to inspire everyone to play a role in foster care, so grab your notepad and lean in as we spend the next several minutes with the Words listening their story of Becoming Fosters.Find them on Instagram @lesword and @briancword

    Today, my guest Courtney reminds us how different every Becoming Fosters story is… Through foster care, Courtney and her husband adopted a sibling set of 6, but the way each of the children landed in their home over several years is a story you need to hear. This was the first time Courtney and I had meet in person, we have tried to schedule coffee several times, but... kids. Courtney has a deep understanding of what it is like to mother medically fragile children, her strength is unreal. With that though, I will warn you, there is some minimally graphic content. She is full of love and knowledge, so enough of me, get ready to spend some time with Courtney and hear her story of Becoming Fosters.You can find Courtney on Instagram @courtney_schmidt

    Adrian and Brit provide just a teeny bit of insight into the world of foster care and what this little podcast is about... and {[almost]} too much insight to their playful banter.
