Noah McKinney Terrell



Here's Noah! The first place winner of the Awana Grand Prix at FishHawk Fellowship Church!

Noah is our first born child. He is six years old and finishing up Kindergarten! He graduates on Thursday. He has a little cap and gown. I think that is so funny!

Noah is amazingly smart. I'm not just saying that because I'm his mom. It's true. He taught himself how to read when he was three. Academically he is far beyond his peers. Emotionally and socially he's right on target. So what do we do with him? Todd used to get irritated when he would hear me speak of how smart Noah is. Now that he's staying home and he interacts with a lot more kids, he realizes what I've been saying. Noah has taught himself how to tell time, math concepts, more facts about space than I have ever known even as a former teacher, and an amazing amount of trivia. He remembers everything, but more impressive is how he is able to figure things out and make connections.

One of the most unique qualities of Noah is his tender heart. He wants the best for everyone. He loves people and animals. His love for the Lord and his desire to please him is amazing. He accepted Christ as Savior when he was 5. Even as a five and now six year old, he is able to walk out his faith.

I know God has great things in store for Noah. I can't wait to see what the next few years have in store!
