About Me

Liz: I am a daughter of Christ, wife to an amazing husband, and mother of six amazing kids; two biological and four adopted from China. I am home schooling our boys who are in the 8th and 6th grades. I love watching their excitement in learning and helping them in their struggles. I have been married for 17 years and look forward to the next 50! Throughout this journey I am learning to wait on Him and be patient.
