[QUOTE="Rockwells607, post: 674982, member: 1134"] My wife and I couldn't have biological kids as she lost all her eggs during her bout with breast cancer. She won but the eggs didn't. I helped raise her now 19 year son but being a step dad I never really seemed to be allowed to parent him like I thought i could or should . Fast forward 15 years and she starts talking about adoption and foster care as her son is now graduated and almost never around . I love helping kids and people in general so I went along with her to support her and try something new not really knowing what what come of any of this . We finished our foster care cerifiacation and got our license about 4 months ago for special needs and troubled kids. It was a slow start , we had some two day temporary kids and I was out of town at the ultra 4 race when that happend. We got a call 3 weeks ago and I never thought my life was gonna change in one day but it did. A blonde hair blue eyed 4 year old boy with Neurofibromas . He has a tumor on his optical nerve and one on his spine . He's been to 4 other foster homes so far and we are his 5th. As I read his file I was scared and didn't know what I was gonna do. He showed up to our house and all I saw was this awesome little boy just full of life. I didn't see any disability . I guess my heart was in the right place at the right time. Now CJ does everything with me. He loves the buggies and being outdoors . Only real issue so far is that he loves my wife's PINK axle helmet but we are working on that ! It's crazy how things fall into place in life . I didn't know my life was gonna change but it's ok and I'm totally fine with it . CJ is open for adoption soon and since we are his foster parents we have the first choice to adopt. At this point it would break my heart to see him anywhere else . I see why this thread gained so much traction about the proud dads out there ! [/QUOTE]
