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) I still want to be a Nola but in order to have grandkids you have to have kids. I decided to use Nola as my aunte| god mother| foster parent name.
My husband, Justin or Pop, have been fostering for 2 years. It's has literally been a dream I've had since I was around 8 years old. (I have 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.
