We are so very blessed. Both Chris and I absolutely LOVE all our siblings!
Between us both we have 9 siblings. Of those 9 siblings 7 are under the age of 8; 6 of our siblings are under the age of 5; 3 of those 9 siblings were born in the past 2 years; 2 were born in the past year! That is right! Ryan is 18, Britney is 17, Mikayla is 8, Carissa is 5, James is 4, Rose Mary is 2 (almost 3); Zachariah is 2, Jakob is around 11 months, and Mason is around 6 months!!
We love all our siblings SO much!! What a blessing it is to have siblings being born as we are having our child! Some people ask, "Isn't it weird that your parent's are STILL having children??" NO, no it IS NOT! We couldn't imagine our lives without any of our siblings!! Blessings, that is what they are!
I was given permission to let people know about the exciting news you all have been waiting to hear...even though I am sure you all ready know! Even though she said it was all right to tell people, she her self or her husband has not "posted" anything on facebook (but I am pretty sure the word has been spread around). But, their parents have! And, she has been writing people and telling them...where everyone can read. Good and Happy news spreads quickly!
Anyways...here it goes..I got a chat message on facebook (Monday morning) from a friend that said, "Your baby rubbed off on me ;)"---Our friends Rachel and Philemon are expecting their first child! They got pregnant "quick" like what we did. Within the first few months of marriage!! We are excited for them..but PLEASE PRAY for mommy and baby =)
Psalms 127:4-As arrows are in the hand of a mighty man; so are children of the youth.
Proverbs 17:6-Children's children are the crown of old men; and the glory of children are their fathers.
