I am a wife to my highschool sweetheart, Richard, the mother of 5 beautiful children, one of whom has Cystic Fibrosis (CF), a genetic fatal lung and digestive disease.

I am the first Alaskan Native Ordained in the Christian & Missionary Alliance. I am a chaplain for the Fire Department. I work as a Patient Advocate for Seattle Childrens Hospital. Caring and advocating for those in crisis or daily needs is a big motivation for me.

This blog is about my precious children and the life lessons they teach me as we do this life together. My prayer is that you are encouraged and pointed back to God who is the sustainer and the one WHO keeps me going!
