Our family began in June of 2000, when Todd and I married. Owen was born Easter weekend of 2001. Not only does he have a special birthday- being born on Easter, but he also is our special Tax Day boy! Alexander, better known around these parts as "AK-47" was born 16 months later, on August 15, 2002. Emma is our treasured little girl. She is hilarious and so, so, so much fun. I love all my little ones dearly...my "Buddy Bear", my "Peanut Butter Pie in the Sky" and my "Sweetie Pie, Honey Bunny, Emma Lou Who." My husband has a nickname as well, but I really don't use it to address him, as I only use it to speak about him with friends, or on Facebook. He's referred to as "Toddsworth." I don't remember why.
My family and I reside in Rochester, MN. I think of myself as tropically inclined, though changing seasons are a climate pattern I've lived with all my life. It is beautiful here though. And the people, oh the "Minnesota-Nice" people! Since we are away from most of our family, the church we attend has become our brothers and sisters, and in some ways our mothers and fathers. Just like Jesus had!
