If you do for one you have to do for the other as well....That has been our motto in raising our son and daughter. I don't know how parents do it when they have more than one girl and more than one son. Quite frankly I'm glad we just had one of each because I can truly say.....
My daughter is my favorite daughter and my son is my favorite son.
Chris has always been my protector. He has always felt in his heart since he was a child that this was his role as my son. He takes up his sword just as his father takes up his sword when it comes to me. Don't cross either one of them when their sword of protection is up because there is no telling what they would do to shield me....
Chris has a very tender heart....and he covers it up with walls to protect it. He loves deeply and he is very loyal. He has a great sense of humor and he can make me laugh til i pee....ooops! Chris probably looks more like me but his personality is all like his dad. That's why I don't worry about him much anymore because God showed me that he would grow up to be like his Dad. So, I have every confidence that he will be a great husband and dad when the time comes. But most importantly he will love the Lord just like his Dad does because they are very similar in their hearts.
Chris is also a gifted singer and he is learning to play the guitar....His passion is music and sound. We prayed for a long time that he would be a part of our church because I knew that the men in our church would be great influences in his life. I love that men like Pastor Randy, Garry, Tom, Rodney, Ron, Rex, Howard, Greg, Michael R. are surrounding him. Recently he went to a men's prayer breakfast with Harold and when he came home he mentioned to me all the men that were there that he thought were cool....those that I have mentioned above....
Chris is in college and earning a teaching degree. He wants to be a history teacher.
One thing...I must say, as a mother we are all very protective of our children...so if you mess with my child your gonna have to deal with me and it won't be pretty... and all the mothers said? "AMEN".
Pray for your children because they are a great gift from God! Love them, encourage them, enjoy them....
Ruth
