I love the fact that it is an easy way to share stories and pictures with friends and family that we don't get to see often. I also love that I can write about the special moments that happen around our house every day. So, here we go. . .</span><br /><br />Willy and I will celebrate our eight year anniversary at the end of December. Eight years have flown by and I wouldn't want to be on this ride with anyone else. It is amazing to see Willy as a father. He is the fun parent-the one who throws them in the air and lets them eat potato chips for supper. He is definately Jerry and Callie's hero. They are lucky to have a Daddy like him. Willly loves working in the natural gas field and never stops. He is on call 24/7. When he is not fixing a compressor, he is usually at the fire station. He serves our small community as the fire chief and enoys doing so. <br /><br />I taught third grade for several years and quit to have Callie last August. Although, I miss my kids at school, I love staying at home with the kids and am trying to enjoy every moment. I know this precious time will fly by way too fast. I am so thankful for the chance to be with my children every day.<br /><br />Jerry Bradford is a fun four year old, who loves to play outside and ask tons (and I do mean tons) of questions. He is smart and his insights often amaze me. I often think, "Out of the mouths of babes . . ." He loves to follow his Daddy around-kind of like a puppy. He is a great big brother and loves teaching Callie new things. Jerry is currently learning to ride his bike without training wheels. <br /><br />Callie Anne will turn 15 months old on the 15th. She is a sweetheart and is a complete "mommy's girl." Her temper can match her red hair, but she is easy going most of the time. She loves to climb on anything and everything-her favorite is the dining room table and Jerry's ladder up to the top bunk. She has been such a sweet addition to our family. <br /><br />Now that you are caught up with us-stay tuned for more updates<br /><br />LinnLinn Richardshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10275590311453750605noreply@blogger.com2
