Cast of Charaters
Me - I like to read and knit. I've been a Christian for many years and
loving learning about God and seeing the Lord work in our lives! I also post on my other blog,
"Journaling Back To Joy"
DH - Is a theologically trained teacher of 4th graders at a Christian school.
He loves astronomy, LOTR and playing with the kids! He is the funniest man I know.
J1 - 12 - our oldest. He came to live with us when he was 16 mos old and completely turned
our lives inside out! While he is struggling with self-control right now - he is the
one who can brighten the room just by smiling! He loves creating things from our recycling
and anything that allows him to move (trampoline, skateboards, inline skates, etc)
J2 - 11 - our middle son. He is the one who I am currently homeschooling. He loves to create things
from Legos and he loves movies. He would watch movies all day if I let him :( He has just had a major
breakthrough in reading - for which we are praising the Lord!
J3 - 6 - my joy. He has a very tender heart for me and really works hard to make me happy. He loves
to cuddle and is just learning about Legos. He wants to be with his big brothers so much, but the age
difference is a big hurdle right now.
Joshie - 5/29/02 - 2/22/03 - Our surprise! Our only pregnancy that the Lord allowed - and we were blessed
to have him for those short mos. We are all still grieving his loss - you'll hear alot about that from time
to time. We look forward to getting to know him someday.
