Thumbs up Thanks, Hope to finalize soon!

Congratulations goes to you also!Glad to hear about your growing family. I would say you are awesome to adopt and be able to homeschool and foster still. Did you adopt through fostering? My husband also has three grown daughters from a previous marriage and we have four grandchildren. It sure is fun when we all get together. We have a house full and dont have to invite anyone else. I wish we could still foster, but I would have to do some remodeling and we will be around retirement age once the youngest graduates from school. Our caseworker of course would like to clone us instead of lose us.
Thanks for the encouragement and God Bless.

Now they are 10 yo to almost 5 yo, 3 g, 1 b. We finalized May 2004. We also have two other dd adopted. Each as individuals. One we got as newborn, she is now 18 months old. We finalized her in May 2004. Same date as other 4. First dd adopted we finalized May 2003.

We have 3 bio children too. In their 20's, all married and all with babies and expecting. Grandbabies #7 and 8 due 2005.

We also have 3 fc at this time. Custody hearing is Jan 16, 2005. We won't apply to keep these. Not saying we are done yet but...

We also homeschool. So we keep pretty busy most days.
