    I wish all children in the system or in a bad situation, had someone like Alicia.. she has the biggest heart and is so selfless. The things she does for her babies are what some kids dream of.

    I love how when she was making the two extra sandwiches that she was aware of how she was cutting them and wondered how they like them cut. 💜 It is very sweet how much she cares about even the small details.

    You mentioned “maybe I shouldn’t post this one today” but I’m so glad you did. It’s good to see even supermom isn’t perfect and doesn’t have perfect mornings. You are such an inspiration to so many. The world would be such a better place if there were more Alicias. Thanks for taking in someone’s babies and loving them while their mom figures life out. What a blessing you are. ❤️

      I think she was a cleaner on the weekend before and she also couldn’t conceive for a while I believe and I think that’s when she adopted the oldest one. I think it started with foster placements and they lead to the adoptions

      She was a special education teacher, but did house cleaning once she started staying home with the kids. She gets some “me” time when her in-laws or parents visit. She’s said that they don’t have date nights. They don’t have a nanny or housekeeper, but they do get support from both sets of grandparents and the kid’s God parents. There are vlogs on how she budgets, shops and meal plans. They’re an amazing family and Alicia has the love and patience of a saint. ❤

I think you're doing the right thing taking the kids in. you said it best, when you've got so many, adding 2 more doesn't seem to be a big transition. I hope things go well, they have a smooth transition, and everything works out for the best. I just love you guys!

    Hello from Tennessee, I just found your channel this past weekend. You are a wonderful and caring lady, the kids are so blessed to have you as their mother. Last year I checked to see how many children were in need of foster homes and I was saddened to see, in the State of Tennessee there was over 8,000 children needing homes, this is so sad for these children. 🔹 I wanted to share with you, when making muffins or cupcakes or anything that uses a muffin pan, I always use a Ice Cream Scooper. It’s a lot faster and no mess.

    I am a former fellow foster parent and I understand the need to want to help. Your heart is so big and honestly I would want to help too. Listen to yourself. The foster system is beyond broken and knowing it may get crazy but those kids will be fed, cleaned and have a good safe environment then that is what is important. Like you said you have to try. Even if it’s for a month or two… that is a month or two out of the system. I hope when they come they adjust well and your children adjust well. Fostering/kinship is not for the weak. Omg I about died when I saw the dog take the food! 😂😂

    Bless you for taking those two children in. I know its going to be hard at first but it will be a whole lot easier, and better for the kids, because they know you all already. Maybe they can get adjusted a little quicker. I was always so scared when I had to move to a new place and family.

    5. As long as you don't go lower than 80/20 its not usually too bad. I would never buy 70/30 ever again. Gross
    6. Your taco bake looks really good! Foil liners FTW!!
    7. Children makes our lives so full. I just became an aunt and I get to babysit this weekend. Im ecstatic! My baby is 9 soooo, I need some baby cuddles❤️
    8. Did you read a quote this morning?
    9. Im praying for you and your family. Always. Praying for a swift and healthy reunification for the 2 kiddos and their mom(?) Dad(?) Siblings (??) Family ❤️ Just how you pray for us, we also pray for you.

    Hope the taco casserole turned out well. We do something similar here except we put Fritos Scoops on the bottom. It makes it like nachos sort of. You also don't have to worry about soggy chips since the scoops are pretty thick already. It works well when you're doing parties and/or buffet style meals. 👍😎

    I totally agree with you taking the two new members of your family, if you and your husband couldn’t cope, passing children on to older daughters like the Duggars etc do. If you couldn’t provide for the children you already have & they didn’t all have a bed to sleep in, not enough room around the table, children were hungry & snatching food off each other, gulping down food so no one could take it from them…then it would be a no!
    But none of that applies. You can offer them safety, live, kindness, role models…

    I stopped the video at 45:36…. I wanted to tell you I commend you for trying to take on these 2 precious kids. I obviously don’t know the whole situation, but if they need someone, you and your husband seem to be the ones that could get them through this rough patch. They are at very impressionable ages and I think being in your family would help them stay on a good path in life. Even if it’s only for a season. Like you said, you would have tried. That’s all you can do…is try. I don’t have my children and I don’t want to be judged for that, but I wanted them to have more than I could offer. I was mentally struggling when they went with their dad. I believe you’re doing the right thing by them. And I can tell you, that mom thanks you. For being willing to pick up where she had to leave off. It’s not easy to let your kids go to someone. I have been praying for you and your family. God bless you guys!

    You should have a 'Muffin Monday' and bake a ton of muffins so you can freeze some. It would be fun to see and would save you some time on those mornings you'd like a little break. Just take those muffins out to thaw while you're cooking bacon and eggs... You can enjoy more coffee that way . I'm not big on meal prep because I love freshly cooked food (like you), but I love making muffins and breakfast casseroles to freeze in individual servings so I just have to cut up fruit or cook breakfast meat to go alongside it. I only have one kid to cook for so I can imagine how much work it is for you - kudos to you for making sure they have something special each day versus a pop-tart or bowl of cereal!
