Foster & Adoption Connections

[sunnydays]

You seem to know a lot about the adoption scene in Singapore! Are there any specific agencies or initiatives you dealt with? Also, how long does it usually take to adopt? And do share more about your experiences as a single foster mama! The struggles, fun memories - everything!

Dealing with the authorities can be daunting, so I had sought help from an independent social worker who guided me through the entire adoption process. It took me close to two years to adopt, but I think it varies quite a bit from the usual four to seven year wait time.

Parenting is full of challenges, especially when you're doing it alone! But there are lots of heartwarming moments - like hearing his first words and watching him take his first steps. And now that my son's a little older, I love seeing him make friends at the playground.

I'll always cherish the memory of the first time he called me "Mama"! It just melts your heart. Those little milestones mean so much.
