After their kids grew up, Pam and Gary Willis of Menifee, California,
didn't have to wait long to fill their empty nest.
Instead of adopting, they decided to become foster parents. However, the
couple's heart was quickly being stolen by seven charming faces!
In January 2019, Pam was browsing Facebook when she noticed an article. In
an automobile accident, seven siblings from San Diego had lost both of their
parents. They were in dire need of a place to live, but even then they would
probably end up apart.
Pam and Gary decided to adopt seven additional children after raising five
biological children already!
"I observed the immense need these children had for love because they had
no one else to turn to," Pam stated to Metro. "I wanted to help these
children so much that I called the adoption agency every week to express my
desire."
When Pam and Gary eventually welcomed Adelino, 15, Ruby, 13, Aleecia, 8,
Anthony, 7, Aubriella, 6, Leo, 5, and Xander, 4, home in June, their
perseverance paid off.
Though it's never easy to adjust to a new life, the amazing brothers and
sisters fit in well!
Since then, they've had a great time hanging around and taking trips to
Disneyland Resort!
But the day they officially became a family is by far their best
memory!
The grown children of Pam and Gary attended the adoption celebration. They
now adore their new siblings just as much as their parents do, after
all!
These second-time parents wouldn't change a thing, despite the difficulties
and disappointments that come with raising seven kids.
Since the day we first met them, Pam said, "we have never looked back and
never doubted what we're doing is the right thing to do." "All we want for
is happiness, therefore it makes me delighted to see how extraordinarily
happy they are. There is no feeling like the one that the eldest of the
seven children, Adelino, expressed to me lately when he said, "Thank you for
giving us this life."
What a lovely family! After everything these kids have gone through, we're
overjoyed that they have found their forever home. It's incredible to see
how content they are with Gary and Pam, even though no one could ever truly
replace their late parents!
