Samantha Nicole Runner, aka "Sammy"

Just as my first child, Sammy showed up a little early too. 3 Weeks to be exact, but that's ok, she was still 7lb. 9oz. And from the very beginning she looked just like her dad, it was pretty obvious. She was a pretty good baby, no major troubles. She could sit up at 5 months old and scoot her butt accross the floor just to get a hold of Chuck's newspaper and tear it up and eat it. I would walk back in the room and her chubby little face would be black from the ink. So I would take it away from her, clean her up and yell at Chuck for leaving his stuff out for her to get. When she got a little older she started talking, it seemed like it was all at once, she just started speaking in full sentences and hasn't shut up since.

Samantha is a tenderhearted little girl who really truly loves people and has a love for Christ. She is also my most genuine child. She is also my most sensitive one too. We have been known to call her a "drama queen". Samantha is now a believer and a wonderful little girl.

Samantha is now in the 5th grade and is a really smart little girl. Although she has seemed to inherit one of my not so good traits, being really unorganized and very forgetful and a little goofy at times. Samantha is a good girl who functions better with positive reinforcement than anything else. She is my most creative child yet and even though she is almost 2 years younger than Chrissy, she is taller than her. She is growing up so fast, but just like Chrissy, she will always be my baby.
