That's me, the one in the sunglasses, surrounded by my amazing crew. These humans mean the world to me, and life with them has been one wild adventure. I've got three biological kiddos, and two more joined our family through Foster Care, eventually becoming part of our forever family. Our littlest one surprised us all with a phone call from the Division of Child Protection and Permanency out of the clear blue sky. Our two littles are biological sisters and the more time that passes, the more of a gift I realize that is. I never planned on having five, but here we are.

Our home may be small, and our finances tight, but you know what? The Lord has a way of providing exceedingly, abundantly beyond all we could ask, think or imagine. It's the 'beyond what I could imagine' part that really gets me. Life isn't anything like what I pictured, it’s better. Right here, in the middle of all this chaos, I'm learning the beauty of gratitude and finding peace. And I'd love for you to join me on my journey.
