Our Kids

We have great kids and love being their parents.

 Kamryn is our oldest. She is fifteen years old and is very mature and responsible. She is like a second mother to her sister and her brothers and takes very good care of them. She is a favorite babysitter in the neighborhood and is awesome at saving her money for things she wants. She is also very kind and shares just about everything. She loves sports, has a purple belt in karate, and played soccer for seven years, and ran track in middle school. As she starts high school in the fall, she is looking forward to playing on the lacrosse team. She loves to watch sports with her dad- especially football, rugby, and basketball. She is a good student and works very hard to get good grades.

 Adelynn is twelve. She loves to sing, dance, and play sports. She takes piano, and is starting to write her own songs. She loves to be the center of attention. She is kind to her family and friends. She is very confident and energetic. She has a great sense of humor and likes to make people laugh.   She is also a great student and loves school! This past year she was the Student Body President, and at the end of her 6th Grade year, she was awarded two of the top awards: the Super NOVA award, and the Hope of America Award. She has great leadership skills and is looking forward to middle school.

Brevyn is eleven. He is a smarty who loves math, science, art, and video games. He is a great reader and is at the top of his class. He is an amazing artist and draws fantastic pictures all day, he also takes art lessons once a week.  Like Addy, he has a great musical ear and takes piano lessons. He is able to play songs by ear and is enjoying his lessons. He loves babies and is so sweet to them. His friend's parents always tell me how polite and kind he is and that he is welcome at their homes any time. His teachers describe him as a "quiet leader." In his Boy Scout troop, he was chosen by the other boys as Troop Leader. He doesn't care about sports as much as his siblings, but likes to go out and shoot hoops every so often.  He loves his mom very much and gives the best hugs!

Landon is nine. He is a ball of fire. He loves sports. He loves to play them all day long. Football, basketball, baseball, soccer - you name it. He can usually be found outside playing with all his buddies in the neighborhood.  He loves to wrestle with his dad and tease his siblings. He also has a very funny sense of humor and likes to make us laugh. It is hard for us to say "no" to his darling dimples. He also loves his baby brother and is good at playing with him and making him smile. He is involved in Cub Scouts, and is excited to start playing soccer again in the fall.

Anson is three. He is a sweet, good little man whom we love very much. We were able to be in the hospital on the day he was born and have cherished him ever since. He loves to do cartwheels and somersaults all over the place, dance, read books, sing songs, and be anywhere the big kids are. He is super smart and has a fantastic sense of humor. He loves to play with his friends, and is known for being a patient, kind friend to those he plays with. He is excited to start preschool in the fall. We are so thankful for the blessing of adoption which has brought him into our life. We have an open adoption and text, email, and send pictures to his birth mother on a regular basis. 




These kids are all wonderful and can't wait to have a new brother or sister to love!
