Support our journey for legal adoption of my 3 bonus kids

My name is Kimberly Thomas. I am raising funds to adopt my kids. To be fair, this is for legal fees, but the kids want a pool for the backyard (above ground... we rent). So, possibly $300-$400 will go to that. If you are seeing this, you saw my story that's possibly still in progress. Day by day, I feel closer to our goal.

I'm a single parent of 7 children, 4 of which are biologically mine, and 3 that are my "step" kids. Six live with me full-time as my oldest is in college. My soon-to-be ex-husband and I are divorcing, and he supports me being their "mom" not just in their daily life, but on paper. There is no "fight" for custody here between me and him. This is just a simple adoption based on abandonment by their mother.

Their mother lives in the Philippines and was put in jail for smuggling drugs across the Chinese border. She has since been out for years but has had no contact with her bio kids in over 9 years, even before jail. No cards, no calls, nothing, even after I reached out to her. My kids asked me to do this, and I just need a little help to get there. My kids are my life, and I do everything for them!

With love and gratitude,

Kim & the kids
