Hi everyone,

We have fostered forever and are finally moving to adoption. We have 2 and 6 year old foster children and are about to adopt 11 year old twins and an 8 year old. They will be here for a visit this week!

I am looking for tips for keeping the family running smoothly. I have read every post from the "large family group" but the posts were from years ago. I am also looking for chore lists. We have not had a child over 6 yet, and now we are getting three older children. I want to be as prepared as possible. We are already color coordinating everything so each child has a color for their back pack, tooth brush, shoe tub, etc. Just wondering if those of you who manage day to day with five or more children would speak up and let me know how you do it!

Thanks,
J
