About Us!

Okay so I origionally put this in the About us area....however it told me there was too many words. Go figure! :) Oh My About us.....WOW! Well Dustin and I met when we were in the 9th grade and started dating in the 10th grade. As a side note, We now teach the 10th grade girls and boys Sunday School Class at Church and frequently tease the kids that they may be sitting next to the one that God created specifically for them! That really gets them grossed out...and quickly! We graduated from Putnam City North High School and went to spend a year at OBU in Shawnee and then transfered to OSU in Stillwater. We were married May 12, 2000! Two 20 year old kids not possibly knowing what God would have in store for our future. Dustin graduated from OSU and we moved to Tulsa, OK in 2003 so he could attend OSU College of Osteopathic Medicine. In June of 2004, God blessed us with Carson Wayne Cupp. Truly, changed our lives forever! Carson is a sensitive little spirit. He loves to laugh and play but he sure likes things His way! Just before celebrating Carson's first birthday we found out that again God has blessed us with another baby on the way! In March of 2006 Andrew Maddox Cupp joined the Cupp Crew. Andrew is our easy going, always "bopping" little cutie patootie. He is such a sweet little mess pot who is always into something that he is not sapossed to be in and who is well equipped to smooth over any wrong he has committed that often times leaves us laughing. After Andrew was born we began to pray for something that I could do to provide a little extra income for us with two kids and a husband in medical school. Thus, God answered, with the creation of Deo Volente Designs and The Modest Mommy Nursing Cover. Such a simple product that God has used in such a might way. In the very begining we felt called to give 20% of the profit from the business to the Lottie Moon Foreign Missions offering to help fund missionaries who are spreading the gospel of Jesus Christ around the world. What started out as me sewing at naptime has flourished into a very busy business. We have now sold over 7,000 nursing covers and are in about 100 boutiques and gift shops nationwide! Truly what an awesome God we serve that He would bless us so very much with this business and use it to further His glory! In May of 2007 Dustin graduated OSU College of Osteopathic Medicine and began his residency at In His Image Family Medicine Residency Program. We have been so blessed through this program to meet such wonderful brothers and sisters in Christ. God has been teaching us so much in the past couple of years as we have truly strived to walk with Him and live as living sacrifices to Him everyday. God has called us into rural medicine where we can use medicine and ministry to impact our community for Christ in a great way. We are looking forward to seeing what all that intails in the years to come. In December of 2007 we found out that God had blessed us once again with a new baby. Carson and Andrew were going to be big brothers! We were so very excited about this new baby. In January, however, we had a miscarriage and our little baby went to be with Jesus. This was a really heartbreaking time for us as we grieved for this baby that was due to join our family around Ausust 28, 2008. We learned so much through this hard time. God conforted us with His love time and time again. What is amazing to me is how much we grew together as a family in the Lord and now how he has used that trial as we minister to others who are going through the same circumstances. He is so faithful! On the exact day that we were due with sweet baby number three Dustin did an ultrasound and found that yet again God has blessed us by placing another baby in my womb. Truly, we are so unworthy of his love and compassion for us! Truly what an awesome God we serve---He is a God of perfect timing! This baby is truly the promise of God placed by Him so perfectly into our family. We are so thrilled and excited to meet this new little Cupp in late April 2009......
