Joel_Thomas Nov 26, 2008 04:50 PM

Everything I have ever achieved, succeeded, and found pride in completely changed four years ago, when Kristee and I were blessed.

I was going through some pic's to send the relatives and ran across some of my favorites. I have posted some of these before but here is one that I produced (with a little help)

She got all her looks from me...cause mom still has hers Ha!!

be well

"She got all her looks from me" must be wrong, she's way to cute to have "your looks"

Yeah, kids do have a way of putting life into perspective.

I think it came from a comercial but this phrase has always stuck with me as what life is really all about...

Big people helping little people become big people themselves.

Joel, You are so right! I feel so fortunate to be able to run my collection and stay home with my boys! They love the snakeroom, but understand that when "Pops" says it's time too go he means it.

Matthew at 2 years old holding his first snake! What else are ball pythons good for!!!!
