Couple Adopts Three Kids Under Four Years Old In Order To Keep Biological Brothers Together
Aug 21, 2020
Lena and KC Currie, a same-sex couple from Sudbury, Massachusetts, must have felt like the luckiest people in the world in November of 2019 when they were able to take home three amazing brothers – Noah, Logan, and Joey.
The best part of all is that these three kids are biological siblings.

As Good Morning America reported, the Curries first became parents in 2018 when they were legally granted the chance to adopt Joey. He was only 2 years old at the time. GMA reports that the Curries first set their sights on parenthood in 2017. They spotted Joey at a special event held by Children's Friend.
"We saw a picture of Joey and Children's Friend mentioned [it] would be a good match," Lena told the publication. "He was 18 months old at the time."

After a while, the Curries got a phone call from the people at Children's Friends who mentioned that Joey's younger brother Noah needed a family as well. Noah, who was 6-weeks-old at the time, became the second official member of the newly-formed and rapidly-growing Currie family.
"We immediately said, 'Yes,'" KC said.
Around the same time, the couple heard about another brother who was going to be adopted by another family. Unfortunately, the adoption wasn't successful. Lena and KC felt as though the universe was calling out to them.
"It was our gut-feeling," KC told GMA. "We were going to end up saying yes because keeping the brothers together was really important to us. When they're older and have questions, they'll have each other to lean on and experience that ride together."
Eventually, all three biological brothers were brought together under the same roof and within the same amazing family. Lena and KC sacrificed so much in order to ensure that these three brothers can grow up together outside of the difficult foster care system.
