Knowing Me, Knowing You

My name is Barbara Reed, I am a sevant of the Lord, a wife, mother of seven children, and a woman who is 90% of the time insane. First I love the Lord and all he does for me and mine. He has done so many things for us that I cannot recount them all at one time. But over time I can, most of them. I mostly want to serve the lord like there is no tommorow. Which is ultimately everything I have to give. I hope for respect from those I'm around whether they agree with me or not. And so I give respect to those I'm around, whenever I can.
My husband is the love of my life, we have been married for 13 years. That in itself is a feet for some. We live in Grand Junction, Colorado and have for the last 9 years. He is going bald but it's a secret don't tell him. He told me if he ever got a bald spot he was shaving all his hair off, so I haven't told him it's thinning out on top. SHHHHHHHHH............. We got married when I was 17 and he was 24, most people hear that and say you were soooo young, but I was the same age as most of the other married people I'm around.
I am the mother of seven children. My oldest is Billy Joe he is 17 going on 12....LOL He is so funny most of the time, sometimes it gets annoying but most of the time it's funny. He really likes saying my sister in laws name... He just yells it sometimes......MARISELA........ he's not normal. He wants to be a cook when he grows up. My second is Bobby LeeAnn, she is 12 and hates her name. I have explained to her that it is a special name, she was named after my dad who passed when I was sixteen, and so it's special to me. However I should have changed the spelling cause she thinks she has a boy name. She loves Cheetahs and other wild cats, and she wants to be a fashion designer when she grows up. Next is Charity RayLynn, she is 10, she is my perfectionist, she has to have some order to everything and she's gonna grow up to be a list maker.....I promise. She doesn't know yet what she wants to be but I'm sure it will include lists.......lots of them. Daniel Ray is next he is 8, he loves dressing up in costumes like batman, spiderman, etc. He likes to say things for shock value. Sometimes their not nice things but he likes to see people react in outrageous ways. And then he sets back and giggles. He is the most acrobatic child I have ever seen. He can stand on his head for forever........ I'm not kidding. It comes from his dad's side of the family. He will probably be a professional break dancer LOL.... Elizabeth Rose is 5, she is starting school this year. She is my first girl who wanted to be a girl. She didn't rip her dresses so she didn't have to wear them...BOBBY....or climb a tree to prove to the boys it could be done..BOBBY... or kick the boys for beating her across the monkey bars...CHARITY. LOL. She wants to be a princess when she grows up...And it's gonna happen. Then there's Ezekiel Ray, he likes to stay up really late and sleep in all day. He is a superhero lover and right now if you ask his name he will say it's spy agent. Cause that's what he wants to be LOL...Finally my baby, Faith Lynette. She is the most spoiled child I am sure. She loves Dora and Veggie Tales. She will probably be a singer when she grows up LOL.
Anyway, my husband is wanting to leave so I have to go but will be back REALLY SOON.
