Father Figures: You Better Believe It!

“Was it hard to go from 0 to 6 kids overnight, ummmmmm yeah.
Was it worth every stress filled moment? You better believe it!
I never thought in a million years I’d have five kids. Nevertheless, on our journey into adoption we were presented with these 5 little gems – ages 6, 4, 3, 2 and 6 months – who had a rough go in the beginning of their lives.
Separated into 3 different foster homes we brought them all together and introduced them to their forever home and adopted them as soon as we could.
My military service in the Marines left me with a disability but provides me an opportunity to be a stay at home dad and I think we’re all having a great time together learning, laughing and loving.
I am so incredibly proud to be their father.”
