David & Gwen Schwieder Family: My Grandkids

My Grandkids

I have the seven most fantastic grandchildren. The three girls all belong to Kyle and Tiffany. The older two boys belong to MiKell and Kyle Flamm. Mark is Brett and Leslie's first child, and Elden is Shanalee and Josh's first. They are great!!! and Grandma loves to have them visit (or visit them).
We have 3 more grandkids coming in 2009 - ALL in June. MiKell and Tiffany are due on June 25th and Tammie is due on June 27th. We are going to have a busy June!

Good one on David & Gwen Schwieder Family - it helps a lot!

We clearly share similar parenting experiences and views. I've been reading one that I'm hooked on - http://todayscliche.com/. I have a feeling you'd get a lot out of it.

Incredible job on your blog; keep it up.

Thanks,
mark

David and I have been happily married for 39 years. We have the 6 best kids in the world who have turned out to be quite exceptional adults despite having us for parents. And to make it even better, these 6 exceptional kids have married 6 exceptional spouses. Thus it stands to reason that our grandchildren are also exceptional. (I am really not prejudice, this is all true) David and I love life, each other, and the Lord. We are currently serving a mission in Taichung Taiwan and loving it. We miss our 21 grandkids but trust their parents to do a fine job rearing them without us there to help.

We are so grateful to all those wonderful people who have been important in our lives and had such positive influence on us and our children. Thank you.
