About Us

Our family begin in 2002...on our wedding day.  Before we fell in love with one another, we both fell in love with Jesus (and His Catholic church).  We aspired to a large family and were anxious to start our family shortly after our wedding. Four years, multiple surgeries and an adoption process later, we conceived our daughter.

"Rosie" is now a beautiful 6 year old. We still look at her in awe.  She is the best big sister ever...such a help!  Very sweet, complimentary, emotional and attached.


After "Rosie", and after another surgery, we decided to become foster parents. A few months later we were blessed by the placement of "Augie".  In July 2011, he became ours forever!


"Augie" is approaching 4 and can light up any room.  He brings joy to the strangers he meets.  He loves airplanes, cars and all things outside.  He is challenging on so many levels and that smile saves him daily.


In May 2011 we met "Catie" and knew that she was meant to be a part of our family.  We became foster parents again in August.  It was a bit of a roller coaster, but a much quicker one than with Augie.  Catie became our forever daughter in 2012.  


"Catie" is approaching 3 and is the dainty one.  She can be very sweet...but she can also be very strong willed.  Don't let that sweet smile fool you...she spends most of her time with gritted teeth.  :-) She has the most challenges to overcome (from her past) and she makes fantastic improvements each day.


And in September 2013 we welcomed our fourth (second NaPro miracle pregnancy), baby "JOY".


She is growing faster than I care to consider.  Such a gift to me and our family.  


What seemed impossible has become our reality.  God has truly blessed us.  Motherhood is not as easy and wonderful as I imagined. I am relying on every ounce of grace available and my blog has become documentation of my challenges and deeper conversion.  God has most definitely placed each child in my life for a very specific reason.
