It Seemed Right

Straight away, adoption appeared as an ideal way to opt for Mandi and Tyler. They grew more certain when it came to their knowledge that how local foster families were required. They came across many advertisements and public announcements regarding the subject that moved them. They thought it would serve their purpose and help a baby get a home at the same time.

An Encouraging Sign

Mandi and Tyler formed a firm belief that all the past events were a sign from the universe, and they were destined to be foster parents. They thought through it and signed up for the licensing program. What they didn’t know at the time was, that the road they had taken was long and full of challenges.

Hard Work Pays Off

After an extended process of becoming licensed, Tyler and Mandi were exhausted with all the paperwork and steps they had to go through to be considered as foster parents. However, when they became licensed, they found out within the same week that a baby boy needed a family. They couldn’t wait to meet little Hunter, as it seemed too good to be true.

Mandi and Tyler were worked up as they had to through a lot of paperwork and different steps to become foster parents. After a long and exhausting process of getting licensed, it had only been a week when it came to their knowledge that a baby boy was in need of a family.

What A Miracle

It was nothing less than a dream for Mandi and Tyler, they were now licensed, got the news about Hunter who was in need of a foster family, and it all happened within a week. The little baby boy was only a week old, Mandi and Tyler were excited and couldn’t wait to bring Hunter home and expand their family. Little did the know, it was only the beginning of the challenges that lied ahead…

Stocking Up

Everything happened at the drop of a hat, with Palmers having a little time to prepare. However, the couple knew what they had to do first, they ran off straight to the store to shop for baby supplies. “It was an emotional time,” Mandi said. When the couple arrived to receive Hunter at the children’s service, he was all cuddled up in a blanket, held by their caseworker. The baby boy was 8 days old at the time and it took a fraction of second for the couple to fall in love with him.

Stressful Uncertainty

There are many bumps on the road that leads to adopting a foster kid, the most notable being the child taken back from the family. For instance, there are cases when the biological parent changes their mind and demands the custody back again. When Mandi and Tyler took Hunter home with them on the first day, they weren’t aware of the fact that the adoption process was still incomplete.
