Six children; one wife. Great life.



Backstory

At 20 envisioned life at 40 with BMW, vacations, well-appointed office, and plenty of money in the bank. At 40 I'm driving a VW Super Beetle, the family car is a Ford E-150 12-passenger van, I work from home, and though the bank account stays near empty, life is full and I am rich beyond measure.

Having a big family brings big challenges. At least once a day I have reason to remember Keller's grand quote, "Life is either a bold adventure or it is nothing at all." The folks in that picture above—they are my bold adventure and well worth every challenge.
