Cliff #1

Named after his Dad and Grandfather, William Clifford King, III was our first son, born the day after our first wedding anniversary. We couldn't have received a better gift!


Here he is Thanksgiving Day 2007 stretching out after eating a great meal at Vi Carson's house. She is Laura's mother and has welcomed us into her home for the past 2 years and we love it! (Laura is Levi's (son #3) wife for those of you who are keeping track.)





Cliff has one son, William Clifford King, IV. As you can see he is a little monkey! He will be 6 years old on October 6, 2008. It's very hard to believe how fast he's grown.

He started kindergarten this week.








And in true King fashion, he and his daddy both have their own dirt bikes!



Here's William giving Papa Bill a ride.














Cliff and William live in Bentonville, AR. They make quite a team taking care of each other. William did tell me on his recent visit however, that "Mala, sometimes you need to wash daddy's mouth out with soap!" We are able to keep in touch daily with text messaging and cell phones.

Cliff likes motorcycle riding (dirt bike and street), and when he is stressed, he finds inner calm riding jumps on a dirt track. He also enjoys Playstation, watching racing on tv and football. Mostly though, he spends his time taking great care of his son, taking him to Bible Class, teaching him the best he can, and introducing him to all sorts of animals and critters in the fields around their house. (They have 5 turtles and 2 frogs)

This picture is a couple of years old, but I don't have many of the two of them like this and it is one of my favorites. We love him and are so proud to call him Son...by the way, did I tell you he's my favorite?
