Blessing #7


This would be Sheila. She was born in West Jordan April 15, 1987. She was beautiful, with dark hair and a twinkle in her eye. Dad wanted to name her after a Greek Godess named Syla, but I talked him in to modifying it to Sheila. It matched her and the other girls' names in beauty and feminity. Sheila is so much fun. She loves to be with family and have games and parties. She loves to have a strong family unit. She has a positive flair, that gets her through lots of crisis. If you could choose a color for her I think it would be yellow or red or even pink (bright). Sheila married a charming young man, also with a twinkle in his eye named Jordan Richard Allen. They married on December 22, 2004. He and Sheila have lived close to us often and so we shared a lot and seemed to get along pretty good. Jordan is a hard worker and takes on responsibility seriously. He is a mechanic. Sheila stays steady and dedicated. She is a mother and wife first. Putting her love for this as utmost in her life and has given her blessings beyond measure. They have two children: Alexis Joy, age 3 and Parker Jordan, age 2. Parker had a congenital heart defect that put his life in danger from the day he was born. Jordan and Sheila have fought for him to live, learn, and grow as they all want him to be the great kiddo he is and to be together in this life. They are still working for this to be. He is a little fighter too. There has been pain, and suffering, but there has also been great highs of joy and celebration. Alexis is still the twinkle in their eyes, and Parker is their shining star. They are working now to reach goals of career, work, school, life and most importantly church and make their family eternal. I am so honored to be called a MOM to them.
