About Me

Why a simple kind of life? Well, thats what my husband and I are trying to instill in our family. We are Christians and living a simple life is what God wants for us. I say trying because that is what we are doing. We need to keep that in the forefront of our minds as we go through all the crazy yet unforgettable days a family of four goes through. Life is very busy with a smart and inquisitive four yearold, active, curious, funny 2 1/2 year old and a new baby. As teachers, we enjoy our summers off with our children spending time at the beach, boating or just in our backyard relaxing. We know what and Who is important in this life, but we also can admit that we do enjoy things that don’t really matter like reality TV, good food and my weakness, shopping. All in all its all about balance and keeping God first.

God can you hear me?

When Layna goes to bed we pray every night.  I recently have asked her who do you want to pray for.  Tonight she wanted to pray for Ba and Papa, so we prayed for their store and their health.  Then she wanted to pray for Hunter.  Layna: "pray for Hunter walk", apparently she wants Hunter to walk (so cute).  Then we prayed for Na (Laine's cat) and Laine.  I just love how she grabs my hand and closes her eyes tight when we pray.  I am sure God is listening to her little requests and smiling.  Those are the moments when I appreciate her and all those other things that she did to get on my nerves that day are suddenly forgotten.
