About Me
Life in a family with 26 birth and adopted kids (20 girls, 6 boys; ages 26,25,24,19,18,18,17,17,17,17,16,16,16,15,14,14,13,13,13,11,11,11,11,8,6,5). Most of our children are adopted from disrupted adoptions, working hard to overcome a lifetime of hardship - in spite of difficulties and backslides, they are amazing and courageous. We represent the U.S., Mexico, Ethiopia and Russia. We are diverse and not very politically correct. We amuse ourselves quite a bit! Email us: stshowell@hotmail.com
Your superpower is that you smell like dandelions whenever someone lies. How will you maintain your secret identity?
From what one of my "less smart" teenagers tried to teach me today, if you simply deny the smell, then it does not exist. Therefore, her denial of the smell of cigarette smoke in her room meant that it simply did not exist. Therefore, there was no point in discussing or consequencing?? So, I'm gonna stick with that...denial.
Interests
Adoption foster care birth family issues disrupted adoption mental illness topics and support all "that sorta stuff". Also scrapbooking talking with my teenagers and singing. (I can't sing well can't even carry a tune really. But I love to put on favorite music and sing LOUDLY -- much to my children's enjoyment haha).
