My family of 5...

So, I guess I should have started out by telling you a little about my family. But I guess better late than never.
I will start with the youngest of the Cox's clan Sloan he is 3 but will be 4 very soon he is very BUSY!!! He loves to play with cars and being outside. He is in pre-school 3 days a week. (So I can get something done) He is so full of life I wish I had 1/4 of this energy.
The middle child is Seth he is 6 and is in Kindergarten. He is my book worm. He loves to read and watch TV. He is very sweet and loving. He played basketball this year for the first time and made his FIRST basket at his last game on Monday night. He says he loves it and wants to play again next year! I am so glad that we found the sport for him!
On to my first born Savanah She is 10 and is a DRAMA QUEEN. I mean that in the BEST way. She is so dramatic about every thing. She is in 4th grade and has the best teacher! She too played basketball and LOVED it. I am glad we found a sport she wants to stick with. She has played everything once I think! She is very good at all of them but says she likes bball the best. She is also in choir at church and school she is going to try to get a solo part in the church choir. She to likes to read and is Very Loving but you know when she is home unlike Seth.
ok i guess it is on to me....My name is Nikki and I was an only child up until about 8 years ago....Now I have 3 sisters Charity,Britany and Olivia. I also have one brother Rock. I know that it sounds crazy that in 8 year i got all these sisters and brothers but It was not as odd as it sounds my oldest sister is 25. When I was growing up me and my dad didn't talk. We talked up until the time I was about 8 and then all the sudden he stopped after getting remarried....I know now that the women he married (Pam) was just very young and scared and didn't really know what to do with a 8 year old girl...SO from the time I was 8 until 27 I think I didn't talk to my Birmingham family. Now though we talk and we r even thinking about moving down there. I know u r thinking I am nuts I don't even really know my dad (Rick) or step-mom or brother and sisters but that is part of the benefit of moving down there to get to know them better.
I am the mother of 3 very different and unique child. I am trying to raise them in a loving GODly environment. Although sometimes that is hard..
Last but not least is my husband of almost 6 years. Michael, he is a hard working man that loves his children even savy who is not his. He Coached both of the basketball teams for the kids this year and has now vowed to " NEVER DO THAT AGAIN" he said one is enough. Michael just lost his mom in August and boy has he changed for the better he used to never to talk to anyone even me and now sometimes u can not get him to be quite! Which is a good thing... I think he realizes that we r all he has so he better be nice to us....Just kidding I really thing no I NO that he loves us all. He would do anything for us. He is just a little slow at times!
Ok that is all of us.....I hope u enjoyed meeting us I will type more soon~
GOD BLESS

OK, not to be selfish, but I will be so sad if you guys move. You will just have to buy a very large house so that we can come visit. You know there may be 8 of us before long.....
