About Danielle

Danielle grew up in a small town in Southwest Minnesota and is the middle of 3 girls.

She works as a special education teacher and is passionate about her job and the work she does with children.

Since she was a little girl, Danielle dreamed of having a house full of kids, and being a mom has made her dream come true. She enjoys playing make-believe, reading books, going for walks, and playing at the park. The best part of having summers off is being able to spend more time adventuring and making memories as a mom.

Fun Fact: In 2023, Danielle read 91 books, and her goal is to beat that number in 2024. So far, she has read 52 books!

On Danielle's side, there are six grandchildren. We are very close with Danielle's family. Dax loves to spend time with his crazy cousins and Grandma.

Danielle and her family have experienced more tragedy than most. At 16, Danielle's dad passed away. In 2022, her older sister passed away. Unfortunately, only 7 months later, they experienced another tragedy. Danielle's oldest nephew passed away.

The tragedies Danielle's family has faced have brought them much closer together. They enjoy getting together at each other's houses, restaurants, sporting events, shows like Disney on Ice, and also at Casey's family cabin. It is so fun to have both sides of our familes together!

Danielle is blessed to have one Grandmother still alive.

Danielle loves being a mom more than anything in this world. She counts her blessings every day and is excited to welcome another child into our lives!
