In 2013, we decided to do foster care and get trained. We took 12 weeks of classes and graduated shortly after. Then we fostered three kids and after a year and a half we took on five kids in March of 2016. Then in November of 2016 we received the adoption papers to officially adopt the children. If you wish to keep up with our lives you can read our Christmas letters below. They are Timothy, Elizabeth, Jacob, Daniel and Lydia.
