A family of 6

For those of you who don’t know, I am totally 100% pro-life and 100% pro-adoption.  I love adoption.  And I highly recommend it whether you can have children naturally or not.  Scott and I adopted both of our boys and the whole experience is really beyond words.  Yeah for adoption!  Anyhow, we have always desired to have a larger family but the timing hasn’t been right… until now!

We have officially begun the process of adopting a sibling group out of Oregon’s foster care system.  The process is often a long and difficult one, but will hopefully result in us going from a family of 4 to a family of 6.  We’re looking for 2 girls that are under Jaden’s age, which will balance out our testosterone heavy household.  :-) Please keep us in your prayers as we start this journey – the boys are very excited and ready to add a couple of siblings into the Olson family!

About Anna

I've been married to my college sweetheart for 17 years and we've been in full or part time ministry ever since. I am a stay at home mom who homeschools our oldest son (11) while our youngest son (9) attends public school. Having adopted both our kids, we are big fans of adoption. My oldest has Asperger's Syndrome and my youngest has been diagnosed with a mood disorder, possibly bi-polar. I also have two long-haired dachshunds that I adore - Eli and Graham. I enjoy camping, watching movies, listening to and singing all types of music, and just spending time together with my precious family.

    We would love to have more girls in the family!  We will pray for the girls to come into our family. Daddy would love having so many Olson’s around! How much fun!
