Oh, I could eat this little sugar baby up!  But I’d have to stand in line.  A rather long line, actually.  This precious boy is baby number nine in his family!!!  Isn’t that incredible?!?  Collin and I are always so excited when we get the chance to hang out with the whole entire family.  Recently we photographed a Christmas session for them out at their farm (will share that session after cards go out!), and when we hopped back in the truck after it was all over I asked Collin how fast he thought we could have seven more kids and move out to the country.  There is SO MUCH LOVE in this family.  I sat back and watched them all together while Collin was getting everything set up, and I’m not kidding you, every word that I heard out of every mouth was kind.  You have to figure that anytime you have that many kids together there’s going to be some arguing, right?  Nope.  Not that morning.  I saw them all, from the toddler to the teenagers, look for ways to help one another.  There was so much laughter and so much love.  They ministered to me in a BIG way that day, just by being themselves, and I am so thankful that we have had the opportunity to get to know them.  And you know what else I noticed?  Everywhere I turned in their home I saw Scripture on the walls.  Wendy has made a point of putting Bible verses in places that her family will observe them constantly, and I’m sure that plays a pretty big part in the attitudes that I saw in her children that day!  Eli, Welcome to the world, sweet boy!  You are so loved!<\/p>\n
