introductions.

meet our boys!  our oldest child is nicolas.  he often goes by nico and he

is a joy.  he is a wonderful big brother and it is amazing to see how God has

planned for him to be the brother to many more....he's now the biggest brother

to six!  he is thoughtful, kind, respectful, smart and fun.  we feel so blessed to

to be his family & i so look forward to watching him grow.  i know that

God has amazing plans for him.

jude is the twin that ellie has been praying for before we even knew who our

children were or where they were.  he is so kind, silly, energetic and basically just a 

little ball of joy.  it is going to be so much fun to watch our boys graft into our 

family.  i have no doubt that He has had this planned and we are eternally grateful

for this privilege of family & love.  

i've been a mama to seven in my heart since february 4th, 2011.

now?  it's signed in ink.  [and stamped around my neck, too.]

i'll say it again-- 

i'm so, so thankful that we didn't miss this.
