Here’s a Father’s Day poem I wrote for my husband many years ago.

My love for my husband increased exponentially onc

My love for my husband increased exponentially once we had children. Seeing the way he interacts with our babies has always melted my heart. Ditto for all the other stages, as well: toddlers, tweens, teens, young adults, and now grandkids. We are so blessed to have this man of integrity leading our family. #happyfathersday

Look who got a superhero uniform for his birthday. It came with a video of police cars, police dogs, police tanks & police guns in action, filmed by his uncle, who is a real, live police officer! 👮‍♀️ #bestbirthdaygiftever #backtheblue #lawandorder #bluelivesmatter

We love factory tours! A guide named Andrea showed us around Conrad Rice Mill in New Iberia today. Very interesting and informative! Please note: no fingers were severed in this photo op — the boys were just horsing around with some marinara sauce at the Italian restaurant where we ate dinner after our tour. #factorytours #flandersfamilytravels #boyswillbeboys #neveradullmoment

Lunch at Gattuso’s in Gretna, LA. Great food at a fantastic price. We enjoyed lots of delicious ½ price appetizers (all day on Mondays), paid with a @restaurantdotcom gift certificate, AND earned 5 miles per dollar spent through the advantage dining program, for triple-stacked savings! 💰💰💰 #kaching #goodeats #flandersfamilytravels

Hello, there. My name is Jennifer, and I’m curre

Hello, there. My name is Jennifer, and I’m currently away for the weekend with my wonderful husband. Only, we haven’t really seen much of each other. He’s downstairs in a medical conference, and I’m up in our room (swipe for the view from my window) attempting a #fridayintroductions post for all the lovely new people who followed this account after @m.is.for.mama tagged me recently. (Thanks, Abbie!)
For those who don’t already know me, here are a few fun facts: 1. I met my husband in college the day after his 19th birthday and two days after my 21st. We’ve been virtually inseparable ever since. 2. We have 12 children (ages 11-33), all single births, which means I spent the first 25 years of our marriage either pregnant or nursing (or both). 3. Contrary to some folks’ assumptions, we are NOT Mormon or Catholic — just passionate Baptists. And, yes, we DO “know what causes that” ( and enjoy it with unfailing regularity). 😉 4. This is only our second time in 34 years to be alone in a hotel with no kids. The silence is almost deafening. We hardly know how to act without someone loudly playing the piano right outside our bedroom or knocking on the locked door to ask if we’re busy. 🙄 5. Doug and I also have 13 grandkids (ages 1-13), several of whom will be tagging along with us on our next trip. So we’d better enjoy the peace and privacy while we can. That’s enough about me. Now it’s your turn. Introduce yourself and share a fun fact (or 2 or 3)!

These two guys have been volunteering at VBS all week. I’m so grateful for our friends who invited them to help out. They consider it a privilege to serve. I love seeing how excited they are when they get home from VBS each night and hearing all the funny stories about things that happened while they were away. Do you know what I do so I won’t miss their homecoming each evening? I take a short nap before they get home, then get back up and wait for them so I’m available to listen to everything they want to tell me. An older woman warned me many years ago that big kids don’t always choose to talk at the times that are most convenient for us. After two decades of mothering teens, I’ve found that to be true. I’ve had a few who were early risers (like me) who’d want to talk at 5:00 or 6:00 in the morning. But the vast majority have been more inclined to open up when it’s late at night to tell me what’s on their heart. Sometimes I sleep right through those opportunities, but I’ve tried to make sure each of my children know I’m available to listen anytime they want to talk — even if it they have to rouse me out of bed to do it. #whatsonyourmind #imallears

It’s amazing how much more the kids and I accomp
