I am happily married to a wonderful man named Cuyler Petersen. We reside in Merrickville,Ontario--close to the beautiful St. Lawrence River in 1000 Islands. We have a beautiful daughter named Jenna Emmaley Petersen. She is one year old and she is a sweetie.
Our God is an awesome God!
God has also blessed me with three beautiful and treasured nieces and four wonderful and special nephews.
Shannon is 17 and Kristie is 15 and they are both like sisters to me. Jesse is 9 years old and he is a character. I totally love his sense of humour and his cute little smile. Sabrina is 5 and her cute baby brother, Gage just turned three. We also have twins in the family again. Brady and Brandon were born on July 1st, 2000 and they are identical!
....but sometimes it does hurt...and not because of anything you can control. Life can throw some pretty cruel things at you and sometimes you feel like you can't talk to anyone about how you feel. I love children with all my heart, and I have included some links below to help you. If you are being hurt by someone in your life...please talk to someone you trust. God loves you! He doesn't want you to hurt! If you can't talk to someone or you feel like you can't tell anyone "your secrets"--please email me...maybe I will be able to help. Either way, check out my links and God bless you!! Remember--it shouldn't hurt to be a child!
Dear Lord, I am so little, still

I'm not sure why I'm here.
I know I am a child of yours;
That much is all that's clear.
I do not have the words, as yet.
To tell these ones nearby
That I'm homesick for your presense, Lord,
And so, sometimes, I cry.
For I'm so lately come from you
To stay here for awhile
That Heaven's light still clings around
The corners of my smile.
Give them eyes to see it, Lord
Bless them as they do
And help them raise me knowing
That I'm a precious trust from you.
