Peeking in on a child's thoughts....

I love the fact that Donovan has a blog now. He is a quiet kid and now I can peek at what he is thinking/wanting to do. I told him I would be checking on it here and there to see what he is up to.

you've got a quietly articulate, very expressive young blogger on your hands! i'm not sure if i should congratulate you or send my sympathies. regardless i'll be reading - and look for his view on nephi's "casting". i wonder if it will differ from yours :-)

Thanks for your comment on my Blog-It is always so wonderful to hear from people who are experiencing similar things as me. I can't imagine 15 months without a husband! Right now we are just on 8 and we are not sure how much longer (The army keeps changing the day he comes home)

i visit donovan's blog daily. he might be quiet - but he says a lot - and says so in a way that leaves it up for interpretation ("five year old snotty brother" - that could mean a number of things). i wonder if there's any sort of kids' blogger network where he could register his blog and pull in a bunch of readers. i'd love to see him get a "commenting audience of peers". he is a talent in the making.

I just love this picture! The beach...it's the place to be!

I think this was in 2004. It was Nephi's first trip to the beach. The boys were all so little! My have they grown.

Meet the Parents...Russell and Candace
It all started for us when Russell left for Cape Town South Africa on a mission. Candace felt inspired to write him - so she did! We wrote for 3 1/2 years. Candace came home from her mission to the Texas Houston East Mission and we dated for 5 months. We married in July 1994 and have been happy ever after!
