KidsHappen Posted December 10, 2011 Share Posted December 10, 2011 I have fallen from poster #13 (at the top of my game) to poster #20 currently, so I have made it my goal to make it to the next level (Beekeeping Professor) on New Years Eve or Day. That means I need to post approximately 680 posts in the next 20 days. That breaks down to 34 post per day or 5 times my current daily average. Feel free to throw in random frivilous posts in response to my posts and expect lots of smilies and :iagree:s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lang Syne Boardie Posted December 10, 2011 Share Posted December 10, 2011 I'll help for a minute! First, do you celebrate Christmas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KidsHappen Posted December 11, 2011 Author Share Posted December 11, 2011 I'll help for a minute! First, do you celebrate Christmas? Yep, in a totally secular way with each person privately doing their own spiritual celebrations. For us it is more of a celebration of family, one of the few holidays that we make it a priority to spend together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melissel Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 Hmmm...can you explain to me WHY Kids Happen? And why so repeatedly? Don't you know what causes that? Were you trying for "the boy"? Are they ALL YOURS? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pamela H in Texas Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 Okay, serious question. We want more children, particularly another girl (for some crazy reason). We also want to help families and children in the meantime. However, I hate CPS and all the documentation and the rules and the additional agency hoops. And I have a seven passenger vehicle. And my littles have NEVER known a time without CPS so having them still come to the house though not for them bothers me. Knowing the above, would you just love the ones you have and go on or would you continue to foster for awhile (whatever that may be)?
