I have 4 kids under 2 at the moment, and was supposed to have another starting in January. We had the interview the second week of October.
Over the last week or so, I was starting to have second thoughts. I was starting to get more and more nervous as January came closer. I realized that I can't handle 5 under 2, and I had decided to email the mom and tell her that I was really sorry, but couldn't take on another child. I felt really bad about this, but knew it was better than taking him on and not being able to handle it.
Last night, she emailed me and said that her MIL has offered to take care of her son! She said I was her first choice, and she was really sorry, but his grandma was going to care for him. Phew! It's funny how things work out sometimes!
