Safe Families

David and I felt very strongly about helping one of the 300 orphaned children from Haiti that were supposed to be arriving in Indianapolis.  Whether true, rumor or governmental issue who knows-My brother in law ask why were were willing to help a child from Haiti and not a child from Indiana.  There are tons that need help.  David and I talked and realized that we had never considered it because we had never been approached until the disaster with Haiti and also didn't realize how many kids there were in Indiana that need help.  So we have decided to go ahead and sign up for the Safe families program and see how it works with our family.  We will only be taking young children who would have more in common with Calvin since he is at home all day with me.  They say they get more babies and toddlers than any other age.  We want to help the children in need but also make sure that it is a positive experience for our children so we will work through it all as it is handed to us.
