Feb. 27, 2007 - About Me
My name is Jenn. I live in a small town where I grew up. I went to Bible college for education very far away. I met a wonderful man, fell in love, had kids, and moved back home. I never finished college. I am not sure it is all that important any more. I homeschool my children while working full time. No, I am not sure how that works either. I work for AmeriCorps, which is like the Peace Corps, only I never leave the county and it is not really as glamorous. It will only last for a year. Perhaps two. I hardly get paid, but I do it all to pay off my school debt a bit.
I am married to a wonderful man named Andy who plays the guitar, hangs from steeples, and juggles things, not all at the same time. When we met, he was more apt to wear make up than me, seeing as he was a mime. We met in college. He still mimes at me. Not over the phone. He also rides a 5 foot unicycle, and does magic, dishes, and laundry at times.
We have three children. A daughter named Angel who is 99% girly girl and 1% tomboy. She is growing up too fast. We have a daughter named Faith who loves animals, her Gram, and is very unique. She is more like 50% pixie, 45% tomboy, 5% girly girl. Then there is my baby, Isaac. We call him Ike. Or sometimes Destructo. It fits. He is a hurricane in Superman underpants. Sometimes in a diaper. Sometimes in just cowboy boots. You get the picture.
I named this blog "In The Blink Of An Eye" because that is how fast they are growing. It seems that yesterday I was packing (and packing and packing again thanks to a brother who kept unpacking me!) to go to college. Now I have travelled a long road since then, and the time has pasted so fast. Sometmes I wonder who left me in charge here, because surely I am not old enough to be responsible for all of this already! Married! For how long! With three kids! How did that all happen so fast??
We are a family that tries to bring glory to God and shine His love to others. This blog is our journey. Sometimes it is an adventure. Sometimes it is boring. Sometimes we are on the mountian tops, sometimes we can't remember what those mountian tops look like. Along the way there is a lot of laughter, and a some Pepsi. Pie if I am lucky. And love. Mostly love.
