About me

I have been thinking about this a lot - how to introduce myself and my life without giving my husband a heart attack! So, here is a random list of stuff about me and mine.

I have been married to J for 20 years. He is a wonderful husband and a great dad to our five children.

  • JF and MW are our teens - beautiful girls who are actually fun to have around!
  • Our son Jjr was born with a cancerous tumor on his spine; after years of surgeries and treatments, he died 7 years ago at the age of 5. It is a constant pain but God is merciful, as we are still sane and even happy with our lives.
  • FH (a girl) and FB (a boy) are our littler ones. Not twins, but pretty close (8 and 7 right now) and a great joy to our lives!
We live in one of the five boroughs of NYC - vague enough?

I am a SAHM and I homeschool my children.

I was raised in a Christian home, for which I am always grateful.

We attend a small church which we found after a year of searching. We used to attend a larger non-denominational church.

I guess that is it!

You live in a burrow in New York? Is that like a Hobbit-hole?

I'm so sorry to read about your son - I don't believe I ever knew that about you before.
*hugs*
