Wow that was quick Jeanne. I edited it so it may be a bit different to when you left your comment.

Happy birthday, Christopher!

I like the bit about the pocket money and the jobs - do I sense life's realities taking hold?! Our children earn money for jobs, too - I'm hoping they'll learn the same work ethic as my husband has.

I hope you and your family are well, Therese.
God bless:-)

Hi Vicky,

When Christopher said getting more money was good, I knew he would say having more jobs would be the bad thing. That was why I asked him that question.

We are all well here. Thanks for dropping by.

Therese.

Love it! I hadn't thought of interviewing the children as they grow - it would be fascinating to look back on over the years!

Happy birthday, Christopher!

Hi Linda and Shell,
I thought about doing interviews with the children a while ago but this is the first one I have done. I will have to do more through the year too.

Please pray for a cure for Type One Diabetes

Please pray for a cure for Type One Diabetes
Our sons Tom and Christopher and our daughter Amelia are type one diabetics. We pray everyday for a cure. We do not want one by illicit means though so don't support any organisation that contributes to Embryonic Stem Cell Research. Click on the photo of Tom and Christopher to read about why I am against using Embryonic Stem cells for a cure.
