The lady in question is Tracy Kachtick-Anders, a Texas-based artist.
Anders launched Open Arms Campaign, a non-profit organization to recruit and foster adoptive families that targets the Lesbian, Gay, Bi-Sexual and Transgender community.
"I have become an activist and work to educate everyone, not only about the plight of foster children," she wrote on TheRainbowBabies.com, "but also the inequality that faces LGBT people in their quest to create families."

Kachtick-Anders has six children, five of whom are adopted, adding to Rosie's four children - that's going to be quite the scene at the dinner table!
