Doug and I were licensed foster parents for 15 years. I know fostering isn’t for everyone, it just happened to speak to me and open a world of understanding and empathy for which I am extremely  thankful.

The new book The Foster Parenting Toolbox, published by EMK Press, and edited by Kim Phagan-Hansel has just hit the market. It is designed as a resource for people  thinking about, or involved in, fostering. Topics from newborns, to tweens and teens are covered. Over 100 contributors have added to the treasure of knowledge surrounding fostering.

I’ve learned through my study of Christian Science to put my faith in divine Spirit, and feel the faith in spirituality helps foster health and happiness.
