About Jami

Hi, I’m Jami! I love Jesus and I just want to know Him more. I have been married to my man, Clint for 10 years and we are passionate about foster care and adoption.
I love to share the Lord's faithfulness with others on my blog at www.livelaughlove5.blogspot.com and when speaking to women's groups or at orphan care events. I speak out on behalf of the voiceless and am passionate about mobilizing my community to be the hands and feet of Jesus to the world.
Currently, we have six kids in our home (ages 7 and under!) Three of our own and three more that we are fostering. Though, I am always behind on laundry and sometimes feel like one more dirty diaper may just do me in, I receive exponentially more hugs and kisses too. How can one argue with that?! I love connecting with other women especially if a cup of coffee with whipped cream is in hand! Life is abundant and God is faithful!
