I am a mom of currently 5 children. We are in the beginning stages of an international adoption of two older girls.(8 and 13). We have three bio kids and two younger ones who came to us through open domestic adoption at birth.  I am very passionate about adoption and caring for children. I love to teach. I have home schooled my kids for 8 years now. This year I have begun with # 4 in pre K. I am very aware of judgmentalism toward mothers BY mothers. I believe that no matter how we parent, where our kids get an education, or whether we work outside the home or  work inside the home-- we need to support and love one another. Moms cannot live on islands and raise their children with no emotional support from other women! We need to see there is no competition, and that we have a common goal; to be the best parents we can be.
