About four years ago, on our way back from California, Tom informed me that he felt the Lord leading him into medicine. Shortly there after he enrolled back into central to complete some undergrad. Today, he is in his 2 year at PNWU studying to be a doctor. He is the President of CMDA (Christian club) on campus as well as the student body treasure. Needless to say, he is doing fantastic!
Stephanie-
Our amazing teen daughter, Steph, attends running start as well as beauty school. She is 17,drives, and is my social butterfly. No boyfriend yet...Thank the Lord!
Sunshine-
She is our beautiful three and a half foster daughter. We picked her up the day she was born and have had her ever since. The case has been awful, but she is worth it! We have a fundraiser going to raise money for the lawyers that represent her. Afterthree years of up and downs, she needs permanent and we intend to fight for that.
The "core four"
Nick, Nate, Marchek and Hailey are doing great. Because of our new location and the numerous moves ahead of us, we decided to homeschool. Not only am I enjoying this, the children are bonding more and more. Each morning we open the Bible and read together Gods word as well as discuss it. This is the most precious hour of the day.
Prestley-
She may have been a "whoops" to us, but not our Lord. This little one year old was quite a surprise but has brought so much joy to our family. Nick refers to her as his birthday baby because they share the same birthday; of course she belongs to him (: super cute.
Jess-
As for me, I am getting used to my new life in a new city. No more farm, animals or close family. I am trying to be the best mother and wife I can be. I think I am doing ok. Last year Tom and I lived apart during the week and that was hard. Having him everyday has been worth the move! Even if it is just weekends and nightly dinner, I am thrilled to have that man next to me every night while I sleep. Life is good.
