Day 1

Day 1, Wednesday: The story of your life in 250 words or less (or one paragraph... no one will be counting your words... probably)

I am a few days behind in starting this series, I'll probably do two posts a day  until I catch up.
 I am the oldest (and only girl) of three children.  I've lived most of my life in the same small town in Louisiana.  My dad is a pastor.  When I was 10-13 years old we moved around a bit.  I hated it.  I was always the new girl in school.  Being shy didn't help either. When I was fourteen we moved back to the same  town I was born in and I've lived here ever since.
I met my husband when I was nineteen years old.  We only dated for six months before getting married.  Looking back, it seems a bit foolish.  We were so young and we barely knew each other.  But it worked out- it's been 18 years and we're still going strong.  :)
We have four children- one girl and three boys.  They are all fairly close in age, except for the youngest (there's a five year gap between #3 and #4).  It was very hard in the beginning.  Chasing 3 toddlers around is exhausting!  Now that they are older, I am so glad we had them when we did.  They are the best of friends and life is so much easier now.  
We homeschool.  It is the best decision we ever made.  I truly feel that it has made us closer as a family, and my children are happier because of it.
Was that 250 words?  I don't know, but I'm done.  :)    Until Next Time....
