We have been called insane, crazy, and unbelievable! Want to know why? We have had up to 6 children under the age of 6 at one time in our foster care adventures. We currently have 5 children under the age of 8, two whom we've adopted and are special needs. If that's not enough, we homeschool!!! So, if you are interested in homeschooling, fostering, or special needs children. This is the place to check out our family! We hope you enjoy!

Our Family:
This is the only picture in existence of all six children! Including Jordan who we fostered for a year and has now moved on to his forever home.
All the children posed beautifully...however, not at the same time!
Tim is a police sergeant and has a Masters Degree in Public Administration. Desiree is a homeschooling mother with Master Degrees in Elementary Education and Curriculum and Development.
Tim and Desiree married, each bringing a child. Tim brought Kaylee, an adorable now 5 year old who is very sweet, smart and well-spoken. Desiree brought Dakota, now an 8 year old precocious child with a deep passion for reading. Once married, Tim and Desiree were blessed with Abigail, now age 2. She is a mother hen to all the other children and many of her dolls!
Shortly after Abigails birth, we were blessed with foster children. Two of them we have adopted. Justin is 3 years old. He is incredibly handsome and as sweet as can be. He has severe brain damage. Justin is fed through a feeding tube. He is able to communicate through a speech device and has special equipment to allow him to sit, stand, and even crawl! Jamie is 6 and she knows how to win anyone over with her big hugs. She currently attends public school and is progressing well. Jamie also has severe brain damage and is legally blind.
This is our family and it's nice to meet you!
