About Us ...

We are a large, homeschooling family. We are far from perfect, but by God's grace we continue to plug along and enjoy the life He has given us, the ups and the downs. Every day is an adventure with this houseful!

Remembering Andrew

You may have noticed no new entries on our blog for the past couple of weeks. Sometimes things happen in life that we are not exactly sure how best to react to. We have had one of those happenings in our life recently. After giving it much thought I (Carolyn) strongly feel the need remember a special young man here.

After fighting a diabetic coma for about 4 weeks my 17 year old nephew, Andrew Lawrence Prak, left this earth to be forever with his Savior in heaven. He was born April 11, 1991 and left this earth on September 14, 2008 ~ he was the son of my sister Suzanne and her husband Daniel Prak.

Included here is the picture of him that keeps coming to my mind as I have thought of him over the past month and a half. It was taken the one time Dennis and I and the kids (6 at the time) visited the Prak family in Hollister, California. (Daniel was in Cambodia when we visited) This visit would have been just after his 10th birthday. I believe it was the day we arrived their family cat had a litter of kittens. As always the kittens were a hit. I have always enjoyed this picture of Andrew with hie cute grin, as well as the one of Suzanne looking on. :)


Andrew... You will be greatly missed, we look forward to joining you someday!

Lots of Love,

Aunt Carolyn for all
