Hey everyone!

I am a young mom and wife,27, with 8 children! Yes, I said 8!

I have 3 biological children ages 4mths(g),5yrs(g),7.5(g) all girly's~I have adopted my sisters children also, ages 9(g),10(g),and almost 14(b) and I also co-parent to other family members, 8 and 15yr old girls.

This is a lot of children, but I love almost every minute of caring and having fun with them.

I joined this group to find other moms that maybe have larger families too. I have always wanted to be able to connect with parent's that are christian and share the same values.

I am of bi racial background, Irish, scottish and african american.

I am a native of Portland, Oregon and have lived in Texas, and Iowa where we have family but always come back to Portland as this is where my roots are.

I am not home-schooling my children, instead I send them to a small private school where excellent christian values are taught.

I would really like to get closer to God as I feel like the times are getting closer to when he is to return and thus it is getting harder to stay focused on what is the most important, and that is serving the Lord.

If anyone feels that maybe we would click, please don't hesistate to contact me as I would love to get to know you~!~

God Bless,

Angeline and family

Welcome! There are quite a few large families on this site! But everyone is great.
I'm pregnant with our third as of right now and due in November.
How wonderful of you to adopt your sister's kids. I know that it takes a loving person to do something like that, when you already have 3 of your own.
Hope you enjoy c-moms, it's a wonderful and encouraging place!

Welcome to Cmoms! [welcomesign] I only have one child right now, but I definitely agree with you about the desire to grow closer to God because the end times are near. And that's neat that your able to send your kids to a christian school! I grew up in Christian school my whole life and it was a blessing. I'm going to be homeschooling my son (5) in Kindergarten this year.

[welcomesign] to C'Moms. I am a Homeschooling mum to 3, with one on the way, and praying for many more.
It's fantastic that you have been able to find a good Christian school for your children.
Good on you for adopting. My hubby and I spent the past 3 years trying to adopt, but unfortunately here in Australia they make it extremely difficult. If the rules ever change then we would like to try again.
I too believe we are in the end times and it's not long before Christ's return - it's one of the reasons I want many children so they can witness to others for Christ!
I am fairly new to this forum, but it has been a real big blessing already - I'm sure it will be for you too.
God bless!
