Almost three months again before I make time for this. Sorry. I have been under way too much stress. Everything seems to be coming to a head now, so either the pressure is going to ease off or it's going to blow up. Don't know which, but be in prayer for us will you? I won't say more here now, but there are things going on that could mean big changes.
ANYWAY, here are some pictures.
The one in the middle is Tasha. Being an angst-ridden 18 year old, this was the only picture she'd let me take.She graduates next spring (It should have been this year, but that's a long story -but no fault of hers, she's getting almost straight A's). Chenisse is on the left and Ian is on her lap.
Here's a self portrait of Cheni. She's a Sophomore this year, ready for her learner's permit. She's really involved in school politics. Some of the art work behind her is hers, she's really pretty good.
This angry looking young man is Derek. He's not really angry most of the time, but I just told him he needed to limit his video game time to less than 12 hours a day. Don't ask about the hair. He's in 8th grade and wrestling (oh, that explains it).
This young lady is Destiny. She's 7 going on 17. Unlike the older kids who go to public school, she's still home schooled. Technically she's about
to start 2nd grade, but she actually helps Derek with his math. She wants to be the first ballerina/doctor/astronaut/president.
Here's another shot of Ian. He is about to start kindergarten (homeschool). He wants to be a Jedi when he grows up. (Rotoscoping courtesy of
Dad).
This spunky little lady is Grace. She’s 4 and ruler of the known universe. (In spite of her parents trying to convince
her otherwise.) Her pastimes include watching Dora the Explorer and plotting the downfall of anyone who tries to take that purple hat.
Here's the baby, Lucas. He basically just poops and drools at the moment, but ain't he cute?
