Newest Member of the Family

Phil and Nancy are the proud parents of a bouncing 135 pound boy!! (I would say "baby boy," but Jenna insists that she stay the baby!) His name is Chase Curtis Michael Sutton. He is 15 and a 9th grader in Bartlesville. I knew him and fell in love with him last year when he was an office aide at Madison Middle School. He moved in with us on October 6th, and has already managed to meet a large portion of his extended family. I am sure that he is overwhelmed at this point!! He is a foster child that has been in the system for over 8 years, and we are hoping that our home will be his last stop. Six months ago, I would have bet all of my money that I would not be parenting another male at this point in my life, but I feel very fortunate that God has placed him in our lives. He is an outstanding teen. And believe it or not, Phil will actually be looking for ONE more teen car in the near future!!
