My name is Beth and I live in the MidWest with my husband and four children. I’m 42 but tell my children I’m 29…one of these days, they’ll believe it and forget my true age!
My beliefs:
I truly believe that God will take care of all our needs.
I believe that humor will get you a long way. If you can laugh at yourself, you can laugh at life.
I believe that being nice will not only make others appreciate you but make you appreciate yourself as a person.
I believe that having girlfriends in your life provides the sanity that we need as mothers and wives.
OUR FAMILY:
Kevin – Assistant Manager for a large chain of travel stops. Works all kinds of odd hours. Good sense of humor, loves to grill and loves anything football.
Beth – Creative Manager for an advertising agency, would rather be a stay-at-home mom. Loves craft projects, knitting and usually has several projects in the fire, although never do I get the time.
Samuel – Nine-year old leader of the pack. Loves sports (anything football) and playing outside. Diagnosed with ADHD and ODD. Very loud!
Caden – Seven-year old cuddler. Likes drawing, swimming, and anything to do with bugs and nature. Very sweet!
Isabella – Four-year old bundle of BIG personality. Bosses her older brothers around as none other. Loves dolls, barbies, polly pocketes and all things girlie. Very sassy!
Evelyn — Baby girl who is one! Loves to be entertained by the other kids, is starting to learn if you want to be in our family, you have to have a little bit of attitude and is learning to demonstrate it. Very cute!
