Our only oldest daughter had to grow up with her parents. We were young when she joined our lives and she had to tolerate two parents who had no idea of what being a parent meant. We loved our little girl with all our hearts, and she did teach us so much in a very short period of time. And as the years have passed, she continues to teach us, guide us and show us that love is tripled with each hug and 'I love you' that is shared. Her heart is open to everyone who she comes in contact with and her willingness to help others radiates her love. Plus she has given us two beautiful granddaughters! We are so proud of her! Kim is the light of our lives and we would be lost without her! 

Our second child, our only oldest son, came to us only 16 months after our daughter. A complete surprise he was, but the best surprise of our lives. He survived his young parents quite well and has become a handsome and loving man. He is a career Marine and has served his country in peace and war with honor and pride. The twinkle in his eyes speak of his love of life,  love of his family and even his old parents. He is a reflection of his parents love and we are so proud of him. He has given us a handsome grandson and beautiful granddaughter to love and cherish! Ken is the light of our lives and we would be lost without him!

Our third child, our only youngest son came almost five years after his brother and brightened all our lives. His tenderness and gentle nature brought smiles and love to all who meet him. His curiosity and love of life bespeaks the man he has grown into. Like his brother and sister, his heart is as big as the sky and he enjoys helping others every chance he gets. He is a take charge man who's not afraid of hard work or taking chances to further himself for his family. He has blessed our family with another handsome grandson and two lovely granddaughters. We are so proud of our youngest son. Kirk is the light of our lives and we would be lost without him.

If you have read this far down, you have gotten the idea that my husband and I love our three children with every fiber of our being and are so very proud of each and everyone of them. They have blessed our lives in too many ways to explain here, there just aren't enough adjectives to cover our feelings. But the one thing that they have all given us, is the blessing of them in our lives. We thank God for each of them, and pray that He allows their parents to continue to share their lives with them. Our love for our children continues to grow each day!

Thank you Kim, Ken and Kirk for being the fantastic children you are and we love each one of you so much!
