The Gammon Family

I guess I should start this blog by introducing my family. I am Crystal. I am 27 years old, and married to my wonderful husband Max (41) for less than a year now. Together we have three children. The circumstances by which we have these children is quite unconventional, and it will all come out in this blog a little at a time. Soon enough the connections will be made, but I will let all that come out naturally. For now, I want to introduce my family as I see it: a perfectly loving and natural family.

Danielle is our oldest. She is 12 years old and at the core of it all she is a very sweet child. She is a challenge every day. She tends to be timid, and she doesn't understand some cruelties of circumstance that have been placed on her shoulders. Actually, we don't understand that either. She is also creative and caring. With time, she will be just fine.

Alex is our five year old little man. He is a sweet soul. As he grows older he seems to be much like his sister Danielle. Timid and confused about life. At other times he is funny, and very unlike any other child you could meet. He loves to dress up in character: Cowboy, business man, special opp. soldier, etc. When in character he expects everyone to treat him like that character. He is a very funny kid. I am looking forward to seeing what he does with his life. Whatever he does, I know he'll be GREAT at it!

Annie is our five year old girl. She and Alex are not twins. Annie is younger by two weeks. Annie is our most difficult child. She is also the most creative. Her behavior can sometimes get out of control, but if you earn her trust, the love she can show is amazing. She tends to be mean at times to Alex and Danielle, but there is no doubt that she loves them. We are working on how she treats them, and she is getting better. I am not worried. She is our artist. She creates beautiful art via pencil drawings and paint. I see great things for her future!

Max is the greatest man and father that God could have placed in our family. He shows patience when I have none, and is the strength when I have none left. I have known him since I was 17, but we have only been together nearly three years. Married less than one year. We are currently trying to have our own child. Genevieve Louise or Theodore Charles (Vivie and Teddy).

There isn't much to say about me. I am very different, but it is safe to say that everyone is very different. You can learn about me through this blog.
