About Me

Devin
I am completely head-over-heels in love with my (smokin' hot) hubby of 12 years, Shane. We have three awesome and quite funny little men in our household--Colin is 9, Cameron is 7, and Ethan is 6. And, as if we were not blessed enough....our baby girl, Lola Claire--the PINK icing on our cake--just turned three! In December of '07 we unexpectedly lost our fourth baby to miscarriage, and God has given me a real burden for other families who have also lost children. I was a home business owner for 6 years, and now I am blessed to hold the title of Professional Tear-Dryer, Boo-Boo Kisser, Activities Director, Food Creator, Finance Manager, Laundry Guru, House Tidier, and Teacher! {But I'm certainly best known as "Mommy".}

Our firstborn--who loves his Mom, Dad, brothers, and sister more than anything. He is gentle, and a very protective older brother, truly making every effort to fill the King's shoes while he must be away.

Colin is always willing to help out, very intelligent, and never at a loss for words! Sometimes artistic and always interested in any sport he can come up with, even to the point of creating his own.

A true first child, it seems like there may be nothing this boy can't do!
Our second son, and always the one who is able to lift our spirits.

Cameron has a huge heart, the ability to make a friend out of a stranger in no time at all, a contagious laugh, and a broken smile that will light up an entire room. Following the example of his older brother, Cameron is also very protective of the Queen and the Fair Maiden, but not quite as gentle!

He loves anything that moves on two or more wheels and, once connected, will love you for life or longer.
Our third son is certainly the strongest fighter when it comes to the battle of the wills!

Ethan is fiercely independent--yet very shy--and he is the King's boy all the way. A lover of his blankie, reading books with the Queen, and going head to head in 'battle' with his brothers, Ethan is both as gentle and as tough as they come. Most days, he tends to forget that he is the youngest and the smallest of the jok(st)ers!

Toughness aside, he is as sweet as he looks--and will instantly melt your heart!
Our 'very fair maiden'--the only girl in our castle. She is everything we hoped and prayed for, and so very much more!

Lola Claire is easily our happiest and most content baby--and loves to be in the thick of everything, right along with her big brothers. She is a thumb sucker, a constant smiler, a sling lover, a wonderful sleeper, a Mommy's girl, and a very well protected sister!

We are so thankful to the Lord for blessing us with this sweet baby and believe that if you hang around our kingdom long enough, she will become as precious to you as she is to us!
Our fourth little Merritt went home to Heaven on December 12, 2007, at 13 weeks....but is always in our hearts.

As hard as it is not to have this sweet baby with us, we are continually grateful to the Lord for what He taught us during this difficult time in our lives--and we pray that we can be a blessing to others who are chosen to walk the road of miscarriage.

Our three little "jok(st)ers" and very fair maiden
