Wow!

I haven't posted for almost 3 years! So much has happened in that time! 
I guess I'll start with the most recent thing. Rachel is 16 now! I still can't make my brain wrap around that fact. She is lovely and talented, respectful, loving, compassionate, joyful, and best of all she loves Jesus! She astounds me daily with the depth of her love for Him and for others. 
Robby is 14 and taller than me. Still skinny as ever. If he grows any more, I'll have to start getting his pants made. There's no such thing as 26-32's! He's such a good kid. He has always been my helper. He makes a huge difference in my day when I'm stressed. Rachel's birthday party went so much more smoothly for Robby's help. He is handsome, strong, loving, an amazing friend, obedient, and respectful. What an awesome young man he is becoming! 
Matthew is 10 and doing so well. He's so smart and such a funny guy! He tends to be a bit more quick-tempered than his siblings, but he really strives to make everyone happy. He has such a big heart. He's still my snuggler, too, which I know won't last too much longer. I'll enjoy it while I can. 
I am so happy/amazed/blessed that God trusted me with these wonderful children. They are absolutely my jewels from heaven (crazy as they are!)!
