Entering into this phase means my boys are growing . My sons are making that transition into young men. They are leaving spring and entering the summer of their lives. The possibilities and new horizons are just starting to open up for them . It seems like yesterday they were being bounced on my knee, throwing snowballs,being taught how to throw a ball . They have filled my life with so many blessings. I'm so proud of them . The scripture teaches children are a heritage from the Lord (Psalm 127:3). They have been a blessing.
My prayer for them is that they will serve the Lord and stand firm in the faith . I want them to love Jesus and follow Him all the days of their lives more than money,success even in or recognition. I hope that even in my brokenness , as a Dad I have tried to show them the importance of the Christian faith. I was weak at times and for that I have asked for forgiveness but ultimately God is sovereign and I trust in His leading . My prayer everyday is to commit them to Christ and always be open to their questions as they grow into men.
Jacob Andrew Schofield and Jordan Kane Schofield , I love you and have been truly blessed to be your Dad .I look forward to watch you grow into men and begin your pilgrims journey in this world .

Yup, they are wonderful young men who make me proud, as well. It's been a joy to watch them grow up and to still be here to watch them grow up. It seems like only yesterday when the doctor said, "Congratulations, it's positive."
How fast 21 years have gone by. I remember when they each were still in my womb. I had all these hopes and dreams of who they would become. They've far surpassed anything I could have dreamed of them being. A lot of who they are I attribute to you, darling. After all, somebody had to set a good example. Love you, Mrs Reg
