My Two Diamonds

You hear me talk about Kiddo a lot because he is the one that I am hmeschooling. However, Skippy and I have two other children and I would like to tell you a little bit about them:

Goose is our beautiful, loving, mature, motherly, I have my whole life all figured out, daughter. She graduated high school in '05. She will turn 21 in February. She works full-time for a local fitness center and is also a full-time student. She has been working non-stop since she was 16. Three months after she got her first job, she had saved up enough money for a down payment and purchased her first vehicle, a GEO Prism. How wonderful it was for her to have just made her final payment on a three-year loan. Goose has also put herself through community college and will be graduating with an Associate's Degree. She then will go on to a university to get her Bachelors, then her Masters. Her goal is to be a child psychologist and the future Mrs. Tang. (not his real name)

Bean is our beautiful, loving, fiery spirited, , I don't have my life figured out, rebellious daughter. She graduated in '06. She just turned 19 in July. Working as a tour guide for the caverns here for about a year was interesting for her and she liked meeting people from all over the world. However, the walking 8-10 miles a day was wearing a little thin. After that, Bean moved out for a few months to NC. I thought I would die. It broke my heart and I cried for about a week. Two months later she came back and is home now where she belongs, safe and sound......PRAISE THE LORD!!!! After the caverns, Bean worked at Wal-Mart for awhile. She left there, and is now contemplating whether or not she wants to be an Interior Designer, Chef, or......hmmmmm, I'm not sure. One thing I do know is that whatever she decides to do, she will do it well.

I often wonder about what kind of lives they will lead as adults, but I am content in the fact that I know I do not have to worry, for GOD IS IN CONTROL!!!!!!
