Oh those Bailey girls

I don't want all my nieces and nephews to have a fit because I am writing about these three ladies but these three are rather special. Maureen Fox, Evie Coleman and Laura Gunn are certainly three of the most interesting people in my life at the moment. Each is married; each has children in various stages of growth and each has made a unique life for themselves within
their family situation. Evie, the eldest, has 3 daughters and she is involved in more things than I could possible keep track of. She and her daughters have been to the Ukraine and I believe Mexico helping people. Her oldest daughter, Ellie, will be going to Ghana to help with an eye program. She is always on the go. As a matter of fact, she is visiting her sister, Laura, as we speak and helping her to clean her house. Maureen is the mother of 3 boys, each a handful is his own right, and she is a nurse and an aerobics teacher. When not working, she and her husband like to explore nearby Portland, OR and try new restaurants. Last but never least, Laura has 2 small children, one of whom is about 20 days old. She has managed to redecorate parts of her lovely home, paint pictures and create all sorts of amazing things. I am enthralled by these 3 and
I delight in their accompliments. You are three fine examples of what I can aspire to if I ever grow up.
