Whatz been up with us

Well since my last post we have celebrated 4 birthdays in the Knouf Family. Noah Jan 30Th, Jon Feb. 7Th and we lumped Levi and Logan together on the 1st of March since they are only 2years and 4 days apart. Now Levi has planned his party since Noah had his birthday. He began telling me that he was going to go to chuck e cheese and he was gonna have a sponge bob cake and he was gonna play on the car and he was gonna get a toy car and a will turner action figure for his birthday. Now, he came up with that all on his own, so what kind of party do you suppose he had? Scroll down to see the pictures:-)

Logan on the other hand had only one wish, He wanted a boat, he is really into boats right now, so when he got his boat he carried it around showing everyone his boat.

Levi was singing with us this past Sunday and in between songs he wanted to ask me something, so I bent over to see what he wanted and he said "Mom, um can I um have waffles when I wake up?" Needless to say they come up with some real winners while we are up there singing. That same night Noah and Levi went to sit down while we sang a few more songs, while we are singing, Hailey looks back at me with terror in her eyes and then she looks back at Noah and Levi, I see them going through her purse and holding things up and looking at her smiling as if they wanted to say,"What are you going to do to us, ha ha ha" I tried to catch their eyes, and calm Hailey down and sing the song all at the same time, did I do it?

Of course I did!:-)

Justina is going to be turning 13, so for the past 3 months I have had to hear about what kind of Party she wanted to have, Pray that I can meet all her expectations. I have been pondering on the fact that we are gonna have two teenagers in the house and it made me realize that for at least the next 18 years we are going to have teenagers in the house!!!! Now people used to wonder how I have handled either being pregnant or nursing since Mackenzie, well I think that is a piece of cake, but handling teenagers for 18 YEARS well that is a whole new ball game!

As far as Ministry, We are so excited about what we get to do. We really are enjoying it. It was hard the past few weeks dealing with the flu, both Praise the Lord everyone seems to be on the mend. The chest congestion just seems to linger on but every thing else seems to be gone!

Jon is going to need a Job in August, so if any one has any suggestions we would love to hear them. It will be hard to find someone that will hire him for just a month. We would also like to find a villa to stay in for the month if it is not too expensive, just to give us a break from the trailer.

Well that seems to be all the news that I can remember, miss you all !!

My Five Year Journey Finding time to create a post seems to be my struggle these days. I have wanted to sit down and create so many different post for my neglected blog but the business of life prevents me! Five years ago, I accepted a position at Hope Academy Charter as a Teacher. My children had been  home-schooled up to that point, and they were excited to come to work with Mom and get to be in a “real” school as they put it. As we drove up to this cute little campus with a bell tower, I said to the kids in the car, “One day, I am going to be the Principal of this place”. Lol  Well that mission was basically accomplished! (If you read this post you will get the long version) Fast forward five years later and what feels like 20 years of stress, I decided to make a career jump and go back to what I have always been meant to do. Being a Wife and Mom! How is that a career jump?  I am working from home as an Education Specialist for Summit Academy Charter .We be...

MIA JOY KNOUF 1 year old

Our Precious “Joy Girl” One Year ago, we had the privilege and honor to welcome yet another of God’s special blessings into our lives and home. Mia Joy Knouf has been such a “Joy” to our family and it has been so much fun seeing all the changes she has gone through this past year. It is hard to believe that I had such a hard time nursing her and now would you believe that is about all she wants, no pacifier or bottle! (that is kind of rough on Mom) We were also concerned about her weight and now we are calling her “chubby” ;0) God is so good! It is amazing how much a child learns in the first year of life, she is right on the verge of walking, she has taken a couple steps, She stands up in the middle of the floor while holding her baby doll but seems to be content with that. Speaking of Baby Dolls she is ALL girl, She loves them! But then she also likes to wrestle with Logan and Levi and they love it too! Of course all her brothers and sisters love playing with her, they are so amazed ...

Knouf Family Christmas Newsletter November 22, 2017 God has been so good to our family! It has been a long time! Traditionally, I use to write a Christmas letter, however I have failed to do so for a few years now. Part of the reason has been the change of how social media seems to keep us all connected more than ever. Truthfully the main reason has been that I have been too busy to even take time to write such a letter. Rewind back to 2014, Jon and I were going through a time of soul searching with our finances. As many of you know,  we have always had a strong belief that staying home with the children was where I should be. Pami was getting older and having children that could now help with her care it was decided that I needed to help with the financial support of maintaining a family of our size. We began to seek the Lord for guidance in this decision, ironically while I began working with my parents at creating a cleaning business of our own, we would listen to Dav...
