Friday the 15th of January...our world will be changing in ways we can't even begin to predict.
Superman is leaving. He's going half way around the world to work for a year. This blog will help him stay connected to us and help us share life here at home with him. Pictures, thoughts, smiles, tears, hopes and dreams...they'll all be here. We hope you'll follow along with us as we all learn new things about each other and ourselves.
Clark
I have been dubbed "Superman" by my family and friends and the nickname stuck. I am using this blog as a way to keep in touch with my family back home in Eastern Washington as I work overseas for almost a year. UPDATED: Almost a year turned into almost three years. With the economy faltering, I've felt lucky to have this job, but it has been a challenge to keep our family upbeat and thriving with this separation.
Erin
After 20 years, we're apart for the first time. I'll be sharing our daily lives with Superman as a way to keep him up to date with life at home here in Eastern Washington.
Charming
At 19, our Prince Charming is the oldest of our three children and is on his way. Fiercely independent, Charming has finished college and has moved into his own place. Unrolling the kite string even further, we watch him bend, dip and soar with the currents of life.
Valiant
At 14, Prince Valiant is our brave warrior, our dreamer, and our goof ball. Beneath all that, he's our observer and can knock you over with the things he notices about the world we live in.
Buttercup
The baby of the family, Princess Buttercup holds her own in the face of two older brothers and looks cute while she's doing it. We call her the animal whisperer because they just love her and she loves them. She is definitely the apple of Superman's eye and misses him a lot.

Wow! You are amazing at this. This looks really cool. I thought that the blog you did with your sister over the last year was a great way to mark the time and to keep learning new things about each other. As the time for me to leave approaches, I have already begun to do a lot of soul searching about all of the wonderful things in my life. I have to admit that I have not always been as appreciative as I should have been. Along with all of the stuff I plan to learn, I think that I can already see that this is one area that I will grow a lot in.
Great idea! I can't wait to see how it come out.
