Did you know that for virtual volunteer credit you can make us a slideshow presentation about a book-related topic that you’re passionate about? Tiravanh, for example, sent us so many book recommendations for 10-14 year olds that we couldn’t fit them all on here. Plus MEMES. Always include book memes. Anyway, here’s some great reading recommendations! Hold and pinch to zoom to read!

My favorite character. My favorite story. And yes, I am aware she has shoes on the cover, but I am crocheting from a different scene. #crochet #charlottedoyle http://ift.tt/2hRfR6W

Harriet's weddingday

Dear diary,

My dear daugther Harriet is married. It was such a lovely day at such a beautiful church! Harriet choose not to get married at our home church but at Shinji's church. I completly understood as soon as I saw the church. It's so beautiful!

Above with all my daughters except Olimpia. She was sick. Charlotte is now back home. She and Lukas are not going on missions outside the country anymore. I'm very relieved. But Charlotte is wearing pants now. It's very sad to see my daughter go this way. I tried talking to her but she kept saying that Lukas is okay with it. If that's true, I must accept it.

The church with the two crosses. Such a beautiful reminder of his grace.

I adore this photo. So beautiful in the eveninglight. Just like a fairytale.

And just after the wedding, Evangeline, came with wonderful news! She is expecting a second baby! She and Chevin have a boy, Raimundo and are hoping for a girl this time. And so do I since I only have grandsons!

Love, Elianna

Goodbye

Dear diary,

I can't say it often enough. I'm so thankful for my family. There have been many moments in my adult life that I doubted everything, was insecure and without a life purpuse other then my childeren. Now I have a wonderful family who support me in my job, who love me and are there for me whatever I choose to do. I'm thankful.

My husband is my rock. He did every step of our hard way with me. We have had our depts but we are still going strong together. I'm so proud at him and don't want to live a day without him.

My boys... They fill me with love and proud. I just want to give them love and learning experiences that I never had. I would have loved to teach it to a daughter but it felt like a mission to teach my sons that their future wifes and daughters have rights and a life besides taking care of childeren.

Diary, I'm thankful and I will life my whole life saying thanks for everything.

Love, Charlotte

Christmas

Dear diary,

We love celebrating christmas! We didn't do that much when I was a child. But I love to give my childeren something better. They surprised me with new seeds before christmas because they are so thankful for me to make it specail. I was so touched!

The next day it really was christmas. We decorated the tree together, even Izzy came looking what all the fuss was about.

The presents where all very appreciated.

But my family had another special surprise for me! A chickencoop with three chickens! I'm so blessed with my family.

Love, Charlotte

A daughter

Dear diary,

I have four sons and no daughters. A lot of people have asked me over the years if I would have wanted a daughter. Especially when I was expecting Manuel more then 5 years ago. It would have been precious to have a daughter but at the same time I completly happy as a boymom. But now that my sons are getting older, 14, 12, 7 and 5 years old, the first one noticed a girl.

I'm very excited about this new season of life for me as a mother but at the same time I keep thinking 'where did my little boy go?'. I'm not sure if this girl will stick for Daniel but that's alright. The future will tell and they have all the time in their lives to figure out who they want to spend their lives with.

I'm spending it with my flowers, my husband and my wonderful four boys.

Love, Charlotte

Rafaels 12th birthday!

Dear diary,

My second son is already a teenager. We now have two teenagers in our home. We are getting used to it but I still found it unbelieveble that I'm a mother to teenagers. Time has flown by. Before I know it I will be 40!

Rafael is such a sweet and creative boy.

He loves working out just like his older brother Daniel. They do a lot of things together but Daniel loves books more while Rafael loves to do creative things.

We also celebrated thanksgiving. It was so nice to have us all around the table saying things to be thankful about.

Ismael and Manuel are very happy with our kitten Izzy. They adore her.

I'm thankful for being able to work more and take care of my garden. It looks beautiful and we are saving for a green house.

Love, Charlotte

Manuel's 4th birthday

Dear diary,

My youngest son is already four years old. I have to admit that I waited for this day. It's nice to be done with toddlers and have finaly some me time during the day. But I love my little Manuel and it's sad he is already this big. I can remember so clearly when he was born. I cherised these four years with my little boy.

Lukas baked him a blue cake, Manuel was so excited!

My little big boy!

We bought him a kitty for his birthday. He loves cats so we thought this was a nice gift for him.

He is totaly in love with little Izzy. She is a sweetheart, very curious and friendly to all of us. We already are seeing these two bonding. They play together all the time.

Love, Charlotte

7, 16, and 42 for Charlotte & Lukas

thanks for your ask

7. What do they argue about?

Charlotte and Lukas argue not very much. It mostly happens when Charlotte is insecure about something and doesn't say it right away. Then Lukas is like 'what is wrong? what did I do?' until Charlotte says what's going on. It's one of the things that she got from her childhood as the eldest being in charge of little brothers and siblings and without proper attention for her own emotions.

16. What would they consider quality time?

Just hanging out on the couch or, eating together. Since Lukas loves to cook they often have a big diner they will enjoy together. Going out is not necessary when you married a cook.

42. Have they ever been jealous?

Because Charlotte might be insecure from time to time, she is sometimes jealous when a other woman gets attention. But Lukas always knows how to show her affection so it fades soon.

Family portrait

Dear diary,

We made some new family photo's! So exciting to have new photo's of our little family. I feel so blessed with my husband and my four sons. I couldn't be more happy.

While we waited for everyone to be ready. My eldest and youngest started playing together. Sometimes it's rough having a teenager in my home but moments like these melt my heart. He is so sweet with his little brother. They differ 9 years but that doesn't effect their brotherbond.

Daniel asked for a soccerbal recently and he has been playing a lot. Rafael likes to join him and wants to learn to play soccer too, just like his older brother.

There was also sad news with the death of my grandfather. We didn't see them much but I grew up to my grandparents living around the corner. I saw them often and I love them both very much. I'll miss my grandfather.

It was weird to go back for the funeral. I don't visit my family often. We differ to much about modesty, birth control, genderroles and so many more items. I just can't do discusions about this over and over again with my family. There are some brothers and sister who don't follow their rules that much either. They are the ones I keep in touch with a little bit. And ofcourse my twinsister, Lucy. But our lives are completly different. She has seven childeren already.

Love, Charlotte

My garden

Dear diary,

Since we moved in our new home I have expanded my garden already a little bit. But I'm sure it will only grow more in the coming years. I just love working in my garden, taking care of my plants and trees and arranging beautiful flower arrengements with the flowers from my garden. Ofcourse I love making my husband, Lukas, happy with the herbs, vegetables and fruits from my garden for him to cook something delishes with it.

It's almost eight years since i starting working and I still love it every day. I'm looking forward to the day that my youngest, Manuel, is old enough to join his older brothers in school. That will mean I have the whole day to work in my garden. Manuel is almost three years old so about a little more then a year from now he will go to school.

Love, Charlotte

Daniel's birthday

Dear diary,

We moved! We have been living in our home for 4 years now. We moved in when Ismael was just a little baby and since then we had another little boy, Manuel. We outgrew our home a little bit, with three sons going to school in the morning we needed an extra bathroom. And some more space for the childeren to have their own little corner was also on our wishlist.

We found this two story house with five bedrooms and a study. It has one big living area with the livingroom slidely lower. We now have a little corner for the diningarea. Lukas loves it, in our first home we didn't have a diningarea so he was so happy in our old house to be able to have a diningtable. And now he has an area to create dinerparty's.

Downstairs is also the study and our masterbedroom. Upstairs are four bedrooms for the boys. They each have one of their own now and they are all very happy about it. And they have two bathrooms upstairs. In the loft is also a playarea for them. And you can look from the loft into the livingroom and the kitchen. It's very nice.

We also have a huge backyard. The childeren love playing outside and I can expand my garden even more. After we saved some money because all of it is currently in the new house.

The first birthday in our new home was Daniel's birthday. He is already 12 years old! My first teenager! I can't believe my baby boy is already this big. I remember him being a baby like it was yesterday.

He is such a bookwurm and very smart. He already has plans to go to college one day. I'm so proud at him!

Love, Charlotte

Ismael's fourth birthday

Dear diary,

My son Ismael is already four years old. He loves being a big boy now and is looking forward to going to school with his older brothers. So sweet to see them grow up.

The childeren are all very excited when daddy makes a cake. He makes the best ones. Then the celebration, and after that they can finaly eat cake.

My big boy!

We thought it was time for a new familyportrait. With my boys growing up so fast we need to make time for that.

Since it was the weekend we all went to the parc. They boys loved playing in the spaceship. Ismael was so excited to play with the big boys on the big playset. There is a five year age gap between him and Rafael. Ismael is always looking up to his older brother.

Love, Charlotte

Manuel's first birthday

Dear diary,

My baby is already one year old! I can't believe it! He is such a sweetie! My baby years are now really over with my youngest being a toddler. I'm looking back with tears in my eyes, they were beautiful years. But, also looking forward to the next fase.

Ismael and Manuel! My two youngest, 2,5 years apart. I can't believe how fast they are growing up.

All my boys, Daniel, Rafael, Ismael and Manuel. They are 10, 8, 3 and 1 year old. I love all of them so much!

Love, Charlotte
