My Crew

For a long time now my husband and I have been lovingly calling our brood the wrecking crew. We have five kids between the ages of 10 and 5. They are actually very good kids but when they were younger they could demolish a room in five seconds flat! Anyway, here are the members of our wrecking crew...

Madison - 10 years old
Madi is a natural born leader. She is a little authoritarian which I am trying to curb. But it does have its pros like, she is another set of eyes for me and she is very protective of her "sybs" as she calls them. She is very astute. I have never been able to get anything past her, even when she was little and couldn't yet spell she would still figure out what I was spelling when I would try to be secretive. She is a very strong willed little person (which can be extremely difficult for me to deal with at times but I know from knowing my strong willed sister her whole life that in the end, it makes for an amazing woman of strong character who can make anything happen). My Boo Bugs is a girl who is going places and I can't wait to see how the Lord will use her and where life will take her.













Chloe - 9 years old
Chloe is extraordinarily sweet spirited. She has a very unique way of noticing someone who is sad or needs a friend or some help and being there for them. When one of her brothers or sisters are hurt or afraid she is always there to hold a hand or give encouragement while I fix an owwie. She also gives very good massages and if she gets out of bed before me she will often make me a good pot of coffee for me.

Zachary - 7 years old

Zach has a smile that lights up a room. He is full of life and lots of fun. He is very smart and especially good at math. Zach is 100% boy, he loves guns and play fighting and has no sense of danger. This is my boy that has broken his foot, cracked his head open four times and I have put two calls in to the poison control center so far in his life time. He has a very big heart and is sensitive.

Noah - 5 years old

Noah is always thinking and always asking questions about how things work and why. He has us stumped quite frequently with that big brain of his. He is very mellow and easy going. Noah is also very sweet and (unintentionally) funny almost all of the time. He loves to help me cook or bake and he loves to help Daddy "fix things". I could make a fortune if I could clone him because he is one of the easiest kids that God ever made!

Brooklyn - 5 years old

Brook is the ultimate girly girl. She prefers dresses, loves make up, new pretty shoes make her day, loves baby dolls, drawing/painting and animals. She is very loving and a total mama's girl. She is naturally precocious and extremely smart. She is very entertaining, true to the typical baby of the family role and always keeps us laughing.

That's my little crew, they are awesome and I am a very lucky mama.
