<snip> http://www.foxnews.com/us/2017/05/1...-siblings-who-spent-years-in-foster-care.htmlJessaka Clark and her husband, Josh, met the seven siblings -- Maria, Elizabet, Guillermo, Jason, Kristina, Katerin, James -- in April 2016 after a case worker asked the couple if they would be interested in adopting them.
"My husband Josh and I both knew that we wanted to adopt children. We had decided this before we even met each other," Clark told Fox News in an email on Wednesday.

My parents were foster parents for most of my life, then parents at a children's house, so we always had 10-12 children in the house, said Jessaka Clark.

Four years ago, the children were living in Jesup and the oldest child was 10 when she went to a neighbor asking for help because their mother was gone, Jessaka Clark said.
DM has a sweet video of the adoption day, but they got the dad's name wrong. :sheesh: Other outlets report his name as Josh--not Jim! We'll forgive them this once.
