Um, so maybe talk a little bit about that, but then also following up on that, have you been able to maintain those relationships with those children and families after they've transitioned to maybe a permanent home?

Oh, yes, yes.

Um, yeah, the, three of the children, three out of the seven that we've had, uh, we've kept into contact with, uh, either with FaceTime or, uh, one, one little girl that we have, she, she's kinda got our heart.

She'll always have our little heart, but, uh, uh, she moved to another state with her, with her dad, and every year we'll fly down there and, or drive down there and we'll stay with her for a week, as well as flying her back up here to Minnesota, and we'll have her for three, four weeks here, and everyone loves to see her.

I mean, all the neighbors, all of her friends, I mean, they, they were part of raising these kids as well, so everyone's excited to see her.

Uh, little, one of the little boys, uh, every s- every four to six weeks, we, we will take him for a weekend.

Uh, he loves camping, so we'll bring him up to the camper all the time, go out on the lake.

Talk a, a little bit about working with Carver County and the other agencies, and, you know, what did you find most helpful or most supportive for you and then the children in your care that, that kinda made this process work for the both of you?
