I want to begin this journal by thanking my husband, Chanch, and my 3 children, Noah, Colby, and Addilyn for giving me such worthwhile topics to write about.  You all are special to me in your own ways, and I look forward to sharing that with you.  God has blessed me abundantly by letting me be a part of your lives and He continues to bless me daily as we influence each other.  It is my honor to record memories for you to cherish now and forever!
