My Hero!  

He has great strength and he can put on his own costume...

How wonderful are kids?  The world holds endless possibilities for them.  They can be a super hero, a veterinarian or a teacher.  I love spending these early years helping my children figure out what interests  them.  Nicole loved acting, movies, any type of performing and reading.  And now she is at Disney World interning and loving every second.  As well as writing novels.  Brooke has a very serious academic side, but also a drive to perform and compete (mostly with herself).  She is very driven.  Her thoughts range from police work to ballroom dancing.  I can't wait to see what she does with her life.  Samantha...well for anyone who knows her it is obvious what drives her activities.  Animals!  Not necessarily having pets.  But learning about them, reading about them, writing about them and drawing them.  Right now she wants to travel around the world photographing them.  I believe she can and will (if that is what she chooses).

Nathan...we thought pottery for a long time.  He worked with clay so well and loved to watch the potter at Silver Dollar City.  I don't know though.  With Nicole's connection to Disney he may follow her path.  Now Chase, if he had to choose today what his life's work would be everyone knows he would be a teacher.  Maybe an art teacher or coach.  But, his passion is letters.  As he is learning to read I am sure that passion will transfer to words.  If so his opportunities will be endless.
