We all know what a handful children can be, but for Anne Belles and her husband Jim Silcock(who is a quadriplegic), 25 kids are just not enough.

They have 25 adopted sons, all with disabilities.

There are 31 loads of washing to do each day, the weekly shopping bill tops US$1,200, they average over 80 visits from the doctor each month and disperse over 90 doses of medication daily. This is a truly inspirational story...
