Re-introducing

Soon after I started my blog, back in 2009, I had introduced our little family to everyone, and chose names for the children to use instead of their real names. You can find that post here.

They seem to have outgrown the names I chose that day, so I'm making the change today and reintroducing everyone using their real names.

Kenneth still loves maps, but has exchanged his dream of becoming the captain of a ship to having his own farm one day. He has grown to be a fine young man. Strong, helpful, kind. He's such a blessing in so many ways.

Rosie Mae is the baker of the family and dreams of having her own bakery someday, but for now only our family and parts of our neighborhood get to enjoy all her delectable treats. She is a budding artist, story writer, and all around a very creative young lady. Her ready wit keeps us all laughing.

Sharon is a party planner, loves dancing, and dreams of being a physical therapist someday. She has a servant's heart and seems to be constantly looking for ways to help someone. She has a bubbly personality and to her life is one big, happy adventure.

Steven is everyone's little buddy. He tries to keep up with his older siblings and has a very competitive streak. He loves school and learning new things. He's a great helper around the house, but always makes time to play with his favorite toy cars.

    1. Oh, yeah, now that I have a google email and Linked In account, they changed my Google username from Linda from KY to my real name. So I'm reintroducing myself to you. I'm still from KY and I still live there!

  11. I have only been reading your blog for the past few years and had no idea those were not the children's real names. I always thought they were wonderful and unique. I think the actual names are great too and they seem like such wonderful young people! You are a blessed Momma indeed!
