thegailygrind.comA Pennsylvania couple adopted six brothers and sisters who spent 1,640 days in foster care. On May 23, 2019, Steve Anderson-McLean and Rob Anderson-McLean of Pittsburgh officially adopted Carlos, 14, Guadalupe, 13, Maria, 12, Selena, 10, Nasa, 9, and Max, 7. “The judge asked, ‘Do you understand at this point forward they are your children?
They are just as much as your biological children.’ Obviously we knew that, but when I looked up and saw all those eyes, it was very emotional,” dad Steve Anderson-McLean told “Good Morning America.”. “We never imagined we’d be lucky enough or blessed enough to have six.” Dad Rob Anderson-McLean told “GMA,” “I’d say our kids have brought a great kind of crazy to our lives.
It’s heartwarming and so exciting to see how they connect with us and our extended family and friends.” Steve and Rob Anderson-McLean have been together for 18 years.
The couple held a commitment ceremony in 2006 before getting married in Maryland in 2013. The couple raised two kids — Parker, 25 and Noah, 21, from a previous marriage.
