Well Tax time and finally get to fix my Chevy van that I blew the engine in December. Also gave us a boost in our savings and a chance to get caught up on things.... it's really nice to have extra money again.
We pulled Victoria out of public school cause she wasn't ;earning anything there and started Homeschooling her. She is responding to the change well.
We have Completed the filming and I will post when it will air as soon as I know. Things are a bit stressful because of all of us being trapped inside due to the weather. it keeps snowing here and frankly getting tired of it.We are ready for spring. next week I plane on pulling the engine and hopefully the weather will be nice in order to do that.
Other projects is that I updated my computer,.. I got a GTX 460 Geforce card for a steal at a store closing and after changing the power supply to a higher wattage can run it in my dell computer. I love it. That was my Tax return splurge on myself. The van is a family thing.
Cameron is in Early childhood. because of his being a preemie he is delayed. so he now qualifies to go to school.He is three.
We got a two year membership at the museum. Mainly for Victoria's school but the rest of the family will enjoy it. I enjoy talking to her about creation -vs- evolution.We went today,.. a Saturday. They have a live butterfly room and Willow freaked out about the live insects flying around her. It was cute.
Brandy is getting more hours at her job. Thomas is getting big and all over the place. William is quite the little monkey. we got new baby gates to keep him out of the kitchen when the wives are cooking and the little bugger tried to climb it.
Ange is dealing with some issues of her past thats been hard for her but her love for the family is always first and foremost. Ange is losing weight and getting into shape... I love her new look.
Interesting how this kind of family can change your perspective on family. I love all my children but also it's nice to have others there to help. Victoria adores Julie who is the home teacher in the family. Also her and Willow are inseparable. Ange take more of a nurturer role with the boys. Brandy is still young and still getting use to mother hood but she is always getting better at helping around the house and helping withe the children. Thomas is the best thing that happened to her. We are the second best thing.
We have been dealing with some issues of extended family separation in that parents and other family , most don't agree with our life choices. It's hard to say who has it the worse. But I can say I have it the easiest as I severed ties with my birth Mother and my step father. That was in 1999 and over the murder of a 14 year old girl that was my half-brother's sister in-law. Long story short I didn't like the position that my family took over the incident.
Perhaps, because my family was never close, I seek this kind of life because I have the closeness and love that I never had growing up as a child. The relationship that a husband develops with each wife as an individual is important. just like any marriage when a person loses their identity or grows away from their spouse then the relationship sails through rough waters. As husbands is is our job to support and encourage the wife(s) to continue to grow both physically and spiritually.

Values
When you put God first and pray often, the family goes together well. I look at other families that are struggling and realize how blessed I am as I have three wonderful wives.
Ange the first I met on Myspace, Brandy I met on IMVU chat and before me never thought about polygamy. Julie I found on Biblical families in an email. She had just joined the group and i was some of the first that answered her post.
So it is a matter of timing and prayer. It isn't easy to find women that get along well together and here are days that they have their moments. All marriages have their ups and downs but it how the family gets through them that is important.
The point is that finding families is limited only by your effort. Personally I have never really had any luck in Chats and groups. I think that is because many look for something that is unrealistic or just love the attention that being a single woman in a group of families competing will give them.
I personally think competition is not a good thing as it takes away the normal process of getting to know someone. Love shouldn't be a competition and Woman that are looking for "the Best deal" in a family I don't think have what it takes and might bail when the rose colored glasses come off. Marriages and Families take work as well as love. The way my family and I do have a 100% success rate at weeding out and finding the right ones for our families.
