1990-1991: YOUNG PARENTS

1990 began yet another new adventure. I went back to school to complete my Bachelor’s degree in education. You went without sleep, almost, to support my dream of becoming a teacher. David was such a big helper with his little sister. She loved to swing, and he would crank the swing and/or push her in it. And, he was thrilled when she was able to walk. We realized that he had expected a playmate when he asked, “When’s this baby going to do anything” when she was about a week old. She was now able to do “things”.
Jason came up to help almost weekly on Tuesdays and when we needed him as he was in school at UK at the time.
These years are a blur to me as far as memories. I’m sure it was because we were so busy. The biggest thing that I remember is that we were so excited that both kids were out of diapers in late 1990/early 1991 as David was 3 and Lauren was almost 2.
Even those these were busy years, they were fun years, because were were a family together. You enjoyed every minutes of being a Dad, and you worked so hard at making us all so happy.
School
David began pre-school at Jeffersontown Christian Church, where we were attending. He had several friends from church and wanted to go with them. He went two days a week on Tuesday and Thursday.
