Kalei Thompson’s Care Community

From watching Kalei fall in love with these precious children and nurturing them, to seeing Miller fill the role of a strong and loving dad, I have learned that foster children are incredibly precious, just as my own birthed children are to me.

Regardless of whether a case seems to be moving toward TPR or reunification, you can have a real and good relationship with the biological parents. Don’t settle for a cordial one. They’re not the enemy or bad people. Loving a child means loving their family, too. Of course, sometimes maintaining connections with biological family isn’t safe or possible, but if you’re the only one standing in the way of a good relationship – don’t be.

Never in a million years would I have thought I was strong enough to live through something like that, and certainly never could have imagined this result to a situation that was so traumatic for me. I am blessed. Kalei and I strive to be a success story for others to hear and see. We are..part of God’s bigger plan.

The Halversons first adopted after they had been married for 9 months.  They started off by adopting two boys, but added another shortly thereafter.  In short order, they had a biological child as well.

Now with 4 children under the age of four, Christoph says, “It takes a lot, but is very exciting and rewarding!”
