I am just a girl trying to matter to God, my husband, my kids, family and friends. Sometimes I hop two steps forward and crawl one step back or even have to make a twirl to get back on track. But, I hope to give more than I take and have some fun along the way. Stop by for a couple of dances and cut in when you can.
I met Gregg when I was 17 and have been madly in love with him ever since. He is selfless, works really hard, and will do anything for anyone. He really is “that” nice all the time and he makes me a better person. He loves anything outdoors and runs like Forrest any chance he gets. He makes a mean bbq, dances with the kids to Elmo, and leaves cards for us to find all over the house. He is everything I could have ever dreamed of, and I am so proud to be his wife.
Mr. Christian has bluest eyes and is full of life. He is “all boy” and jumps from one adventure to the next. He loves trains, watermelon, and his blankie. He is polite, kind, and has tons of charisma with his little grin. He is a great big brother and gives in to girls more than they deserve. He is Daddy’s little buddy and the joy of my heart.
Miss Callie is everything I ever dreamed up in a little girl. She is about everything and everybody and never sits still. She loves all things girly, babies, mommy’s cell phone, pink, and her pillow. She has a laugh that starts in her toes and will melt you with her smile. She dances through our house in princess dresses with a pen and pad in her hand. She is mama’s little helper and Daddy’s Sweet Pea.
Cate is the icing on the cake. God knew she would be the perfect compliment to our family. She loves necklaces, animals, and her loveys. She has just enough girly to hang with Callie at her tea parties, but already shows a special bond with her big brother loving his superheros. She is a typical third child getting whatever she wants with those deep dimples of hers.

Something Clicked in My Heart
I held a newborn baby the other day and something clicked. I can't describe it, but I wanted to run out the door with him and take him as my own. I have held tons of newborn babies and have never felt this way(even before I had kids) and get my fill of my favorites, Maddie, JuJu and Baylor every week. But this was different and I can't seem to shake it. I know what it is like to want something so bad that it becomes your focus. I told God that I can't go there again. I have two miracles that are just enough and sometimes way more than enough, but I know that something in me changed that day. I know this might sound strange, but I feel like having kids actually increased my desire to have more kids. Instead of feeling like my life is complete, I feel like it is just begining with our family and we have so much more love to give. Only God knows, but I know one thing...Dylan's mommy is lucky that she moved the week after I met him or I would be there every day holding that sweet little peep.
