Caroline is a very smart girl. She said she would like Dot to have a friend. So we were going to get another cat for the family, when she said, "No! Dot wants a goat friend!" We asked her why and she said, "He just likes goats,". Harper thought it was a great idea, so now we have a cat and a goat. Caroline named her Apple Blossom, as Apples are her favorite food.DH: Harper Driksoll (36)

We had the girls in daycare, but it was getting too expensive. It costs more than I earn, so I quit my job to stay home with them. Our family has had a tough year, and Harper and I considered getting a divorce. We knew we could work it out and decided against a divorce. I am not stressed out at all anymore and not busy. It has worked out great and we are one happy family again.DH: Harper Driksoll (37)

Year 20
After the death of my dad this year, we decided to move. We were planning on moving for quite some time now, but we needed to stay very near to my father. So after he died, we moved to Britain, where Harper grew up. All the kids love it here. Caroline got teased for being to smart, Nicole got teased for not being smart enough, and Vera and Violet both love our new house with more room to play outside. It was perfect timing as the twins will be starting school at the same time as the other children. They won't be the "new kids" because nobody else their age knows anybody. Caroline and Nicole are both very outgoing, and won't have any trouble being the "new kids" in our new, wonderful town!DH: Harper Driksoll (44)
