One of the King's Men (ePub)

I was born and raised in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia, in the 1950s as a preacher's kid. Thus, I was required to attend all meetings and activities associated with my father's church, learn copious scripture verses, have a vast biblical knowledge, and teach Sunday school for several years.

As a teenager, I attended an all-academic high school, followed by several years at Teachers College and the acquisition of qualifications in teaching. However, absolutely none of these achievements prepared me to be the mother of my extraordinary third child, my son Cameron.

Having taught every year level from prep to year 12 over forty-one years, I have now retired and reside on the beautiful Sunshine Coast in Queensland.

My daughter and son, Katrina and Todd, have both matured into exceptional adults, whose various achievements surprise and excite me. Trina was always going to succeed at whatever enterprise she chose, such is her innate ability, but Toddy has amazed me by becoming a highly successful businessman, with a flourishing business employing various staff members. His leadership qualities are truly exceptional.

Their greatest achievements, however, are the children they have produced, the grandchildren they have given me. Two from Trina and six, plus a great-granddaughter, from Todd. My two youngest grandchildren are a particular delight to me as they are both boys, and both have blond hair. Also, they live close enough to me so that I am able to spend time with them and enjoy the thrill of playing pirates, cars, and play dough activities, as well as dining out with them and visiting the zoo, the pool, the park, and of course, the beach at Caloundra. My life has been so blessed.
