Parenting

Adventures in Parenting  We feel very blessed to have three hilarious biological boys and are foster parents to a precious little girl.  My parenting philosophy is to focus on character building since good behavior generally follows strong character.  I don't pretend to have it all together since I don't know if any parent really does (although someone said that I do, but this was completely ironic given the situation)!  We are busy and tired with four kids, but we laugh all the time.  I feel like I am constantly learning too as we try to teach our boys to be men of God.
