Cast of Characters

Hi – I’m T. But some days I feel like Elastigirl! Always being stretched to my limits or pulled in a hundred different directions. But with God’s help I somehow manage to pull it all together without killing anyone.


I am married to Mr. Incredible. He is truly my superhero. He’s actually a computer geek, er, I mean IT professional. But he looks like Mr. Incredible to me, and he leads this family on lots of great adventures. We have 4 amazing children together.

Oldest daughter is 11 – going on 25. When I asked her what fictional character would best describe her, she picked Teyla Emmagan, from Stargate Atlantis. My first thought was ‘You just want to kick some hiney like she does.’ But the more I think about it – the more I believe she is right. Both DD11 and Teyla are born to be great leaders, able to make difficult decisions while showing great compassion and empathy. And they can both kick some enemy tushy when needed.

Son #1 is Ash Ketchum, “greatest Pokemon Trainer in the world”. My Ash is 8 year old, but wise beyond his years. I know God has great things planned for this young man. He dreams of becoming a builder and an inventor – and is always telling us about ideas he has to improve the world.

Son #2 is 7 years old. He has requested that he be called Rayman, from the Nintendo game of the same name. He makes me laugh. Rayman, like my son, has his own language, which makes perfect sense to him, but no one else. Rayman has some nifty powers – being able to jump incredible distances, and climb insurmountable surfaces, and destroy things by throwing bolts of energy out of his fists. He can even twirl his ears to fly like a helicopter!! DS started doing all these things by 15 months old!! The professionals call these special powers Sensory Processing Disorder, but we just call him son.


And then there’s Princess Buttercup. The Princess is only 6 months old, but she believes the world revolves around her. And we have done very little to convince her otherwise.

Welcome to our strange and wonderful life.
