Caitlynn & Emily holding the Christmas trees they colored

A Family of Five with 3 Little Girls!!

We are a Cedar Rapids family of five a mom, dad & three liitle girls. We moved from Viriginia during the summer after the flood. The girls are: Caitlynn (4yrs old), Emily (17 mths old) & Jocelyn (3mths old). We have family in Iowa, Illinois, New Mexico & New York. But with the economy the way it is we all cant be together. So we do what we can: send greeting cards, call & send pictures to each other. Money is REALLY tight for us with only one person working so far in our household. And with so many kids under school age we are quite busy. But we do what we can do to make the holidays fun for the one's that might remember it. Like today: (Crystal: Mommy) drew trees & had Caitlynn & Emily color them the way they wanted to. & I took pictures of them with their tree's & their baby sister Jocelyn. I am from NY I had Jocelyn on September 11 at Mercy. Things are difficult but we are hanging in there.
