We just said "yes" to having our profile shown to three different birth mothers. That doesn't mean much quite yet, but if one of those birth mothers picks us, things will start getting very exciting very quickly.
Mom to seven munchkins, ranging in age from 16 down to 1—and wife to one brainy and handsome patent lawyer. As a homeschooling mom, I keep busy teaching my growing brood, changing diapers, giving kisses, refereeing ever-erupting sibling spats, lookin' oh-so-sporty in my twelve-passenger van, and trying to be at least three places at once during those crazy after-school hours. In my "free time," I help run a homeschool support group, and I volunteer for political campaigns to help the good guys. (Yes, there are a few.) Catch me on a zany day, and you may find me a wee bit frazzled. Catch me most days, and I'll bore you to tears telling you how much I love being home with our kids and having the privilege of teaching them daily. It's all good. For those who ask if I miss practicing law, the answer is a resounding "no." I can't top what I'm doing now.
My passions: My Catholic faith, adoption, home education, fitness, weight training, nutrition (paleo/real food), gardening, and reading (too much non-fiction; not enough fiction).
Very exciting! I'll be praying for your family and each of these moms. :)
