Life

Playing the game of Life isn't always "fun" is it? Well to bring you up to date on our ever adventurous life, I will start with We are in Washington State now so We have travelled the USA from coast to coast and then some.

It is so strange when a curve ball is sent your way and your life seems turned upside down. That is how I feel and I don't really know how to put it to words, except to say that my head is spinning at how fast our lives have changed over the past two months!

We were in Ohio state when we heard the news that My brother and his family were moving to WA and the Church in Cathedral City would need some one to fill in until they found a pastor. The Lord laid it on Jon and my heart to do a complete 180 and change our plans and go try to be a blessing to BBC, we drove straight there, Jon barely let us get out to walk, :0) and we made it in 4 days. We were welcomed back to August in the desert, triple digits! Jon caved up the RV and made it more tolerable to live in. The kids were all happy to get to see friends and it was great to be back at BBC. Jon tried to find a job, but was unable and since we depleted all resources just to get back we had to make a decision of what to do.

The Church is able to have preachers come from West Coast Baptist College to preach the services for them, so through Godly council we decided to come to the State of Washington and we are taking 6 months to pay some bills and see what God has in store for us. We need your prayers! Jon did get a job, He started today, PTL for that! We love being in the ministry so Please keep us in your Prayers! Thank You!!!

Many heart felt thanks for your sacrifice to Bible Baptist Church in our time of need. We enjoyed you and your family being with us for those few weeks. Praise the Lord that Jon has a job!

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...
