Every good and perfect gift is from above.  James 1:17

Makenna is our firstborn child.  She taught us how to be "mommy and daddy".  She is shy yet full of "spirit"!  She has more willpower than the other 4 members of our house combined.  (although her daddy claims she is the spitting image of her mommy!)   Makenna is in the first grade at Victory Christian School.  She is a straight A student and is very driven to succeed.  Her passion is art and she spends hours making up cards, books and pictures for us.    She enjoys taking dance classes which include ballet, tap & jazz.  She will be performing in her second dance recital this summer.   She also loves to read and enjoys reading to her younger siblings.     She is very excited to have a new sister from China and we are planning to take her with us on our trip.
