Hi

Hey Guys

I'm Alisa, but these days I am mostly being called Nola. Some might ask why Nola? I have two explanations. My name is Alisa Nelson- Nelson, I took the AL and ON from my first and last name and switched them. :)  Actually a couple years ago I was driving around our local mall and saw an elderly man with a Panola license plate. I thought OMG how cute. I want to be a Nola when I have grandchildren. I told a couple friends and they told me Panola is a pepper company. (I had no idea)  Well I still want to be a Nola and in order to have grandkids you have to have kids, I decided to use Nola in my aunte/ god mother/foster parenting name.

My husband, Justin or Pop, as you will often hear and I have been fostering for almost 2 years. It has literally been a dream I've had since I was around 8 years old. I have years of journals to prove it. We have had two placements and are really loving it. Currently we have a 19 month old who we have had for 8 months, we call her Cucs.

This blog will be where I grow into parenting and chasing this dream God has put on my heart that I now share with my husband, family and friends. I hope to meet other parents ( Biological or Foster ) that I can build a community of support with.
