About me

My husand and I are living with my 87 year old father-in-law. He had been in an assisted living home for 6 mo., when we decided to bring him home to his house for as long as we could care for him. We moved in together on 6/19/08.

We also have 1 son that is more than any parent could ever hope for. He has brought into our lives a daughter that I was unable to have and 2 beautiful granddaughters, 6 and 3 years old.

The Lord blesses me everyday. I thank him at the end of the day for the opportunity for us to still be together as a family, ask forgiveness for my weaknesses and the strength to hopefully repay in some way the love and guidance that my father-in-law has given to me in the last 40 years.
