One of the greatest gifts anyone can possess is that of a caring and loving family.
I am blessed with four wonderful treasures: Sean, Jonathan, Victoria and Benjamin. They have changed much over the years as you can see in this collage of our lives together. Jonathan is now 16 and goes by Jon. Victoria is 14 and responds to Tory; while Benjamin at age 12 prefers to be called Ben. Thank God Sean is still Sean.
Sean is doing great at Texas Tech and is now 21 years old. He is handsome and so much fun to be around. He's grown into a fine young man with a beautiful servants heart.
Jon is quite the intellectual. He has been invited by the National Students Leadership Conference to study Journalism and Mass Communications in California this summer at UC Berkeley. He will be there for 2 weeks and will receive college credit while still attending Prospect High School here in Mount Prospect, IL.
Tory is very involved in sports and humanitarian efforts and she also started her first job. Yes, our little girl is growing up. She runs track for Prospect High School and has volunteered for organizations such as the Special Olympics and the Amercian Cancer Society. She works for Northwest Assemblies of God as a childcare worker and the kids just love her. She will be participating in a missions trip with our church this summer to Detroit, MI where she will do some community service and outreach.
Ben is a wonderful child. He is so loving and kind and his relationship with the Lord remains strong. He continues to grow in his spirtual sensitivity and is pursuing a career as a child actor/model. He recently received an award at school for most improved grades. He is so focused on his studies and we are so proud of his A-B honor roll status. He recently enjoyed doing a small photo shoot that confirmed his gifting in modeling as well as acting.
Steve and I are very proud of the kids and their involvement in our local church, their committment to be a positive influence in their public schools and their love for God and family.
As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord!
