Homeschool Blog Hop – My Family

This the second week of the getting to know you blog hop on Our Worldwide Classroom – this week’s Blog hop is about our families. Join in on the fun!
Our wedding reception my family through us after we eloped. 2002

My husband, Fritz and I met in 1998. We both worked at the same company. When I 1st met him I thought he was a nerd because he was so smart! Then as time passed I fell for him! It was me that pursaded him. He had a Jeep at the time, didn’t lock the doors & I left him love notes in his car – I look back on this now & how gutsy I was – he had a girlfriend at the time! Anyways, I am glad he called it off with the girlfriend, because now I am so blessed to have him as my husband! We got married in Las Vegas on 2/25/02 (I was a different girl back then (I came to Christ less than a year later).

Fritz went to school to be a Chemical Engineer (see what I mean’t about being smart?), this is what he he has a degree in. However, now his is a Quality Engineer over a large company for furniture. All throughout his childhood & into college he played ice hockey (his position was goalie) he also played baseball & football. He enjoys & is good at golf, bowling, tennis & racketball.
He is a great man, he is a awesome father and husband. He never complains and is always willing to help. He has a big heart & would give you the shirt off his back. He is very patient with all things. I am so blessed that he is my husband and the father of my children. Fritz & I will be married for 8 years on 2/25. Seems like yesterday we were in Las Vegas for a week getting married!
We have 3 beautiful children: 4 yrs, 2 yrs & 9 months. We had a miscarriage between our 4 yr old & 2 yr old. This hit us both hard & I am so blessed because he said if that were to happen again he wouldn’t want anymore children because of the pain it caused us. I am praying for 1 more for our family – God willing.

JJ is 4 yrs old (he will be 5 in April) + he will be offically starting kindergarten in August. Wow! JJ loves playing the Wii, espcially with his papa. He is a total papa’s boy! He also enjoys superhero’s & comic books  – just like papa! He is alot like me, stubborn!  He can be a quiet & shy boy at times, at times laid back like his papa & then other times like me! People mistake him as older than 4 because he is so tall! I’m not sure where he gets it from but he’s tall! Tall & solid!
Jumping Bean is our spunky wild 2 yr old. He is crazy! Always getting hurt because he’s so clumsy. His repsonse is it’s ok, I’m fine. He has the prettiest hair I have ever seen, blonde with pretty curls – I have never cut the back. I do not have the heart too – but I hate when people call him a girl! He is very ansty & can’t sit still for 2 minutes. I think at times he gets jealous because he’s not longer the baby, but noone the less he loves his baby sister & is always brining her toys & blankets all on his own. He will be easy to homeschool because he is like a sponge & he is always willing to learn. He is a superhero fanatic!
Little Princess – when they told me I was having a girl I was THRILLED! She is my beautifull happy, socialable baby. She is alot like my 2 year old. She crawls into the kitchen & gets into the garbage, she’s trying to climb steps now! She will be 10 months on Thursday, time flies! She is a mama’s girl BIGTIME – I am loving this! I love to hold her in my arms & nurse her & look into her big beautiful blue eyes. She loves
get into her older brothers toys & it drives them crazy! She is now at the stage where she is standing & holding onto things, I estimate she will be walking before her 1 year birthday in April. She picks up on things fast!
God has blessed me! Praise God for His awesome blessings & his wonderful gifts He has poured out on me & blessing me with such a great family!
