Resurgence of the Family News blog










It has been a long time since I posted anything on this blog. Since I have so many friends who need to be updated about my health and other family news, I decided to revive it. I have never been good at doing things that require consistency, but I will try to update the blog on a regular basis.

The last post talked about Malone's birth. That was well over two years ago. She is a precocious little girl, who talks up a storm. Adorable and very clever. She is enjoying the attention of all her family members.

(Did I mention that all the children are visiting for the summer?)

Talking about births - Marelize and her Air Force pilot husband had another baby in January. Judah is 5 months old today (23rd) and a very happy baby! He is content to lie around on the carpet and kick and has started rolling over onto his tummy. He cries only when he's hungry or sleepy and LOVES being held by all and sundry.



Marelize's husband Cameron, has just been promoted to Captain and completed his training to be flight commander.

Lydia graduated with distinction in May with a Masters degree in Counseling. After she leaves us here, she will find a job and complete 700 hours of practicum and internship before she can take her licensure exam. Lydia and Joel celebrated their 7th wedding anniversary last week.

Christelle, our baby, will be a senior in high school this upcoming academic year and is very excited about the future. We don't know yet what direction her studies will take, but she is already doing college courses through the University of Alabama's Early College program.

Chris is working very hard keeping the house and yard going. He has always been a better housekeeper than I. He is also still CEO of AFMIN (Africa Ministeries Network). You can read more about his work at http://www.afmin.org/.

To see some of the pictures we had taken last week, go to Kellen Jacob's website and look at the photos labeled Generations.

Next time, I'll talk about me.
