Rom 3:23-24

There is no difference, for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus.

Life with 5 children

Life with 5 children is well..busy...not because going from 4 to 5 is a big addition, but going from no needed naps, no diapers, no night feedings to having a newborn has slowed us down a bit. Niki's Mom came for 2 weeks to help while the old Mom in the house tried to catch up on some sleep. The oldest 4 children loved having her here and Scott and Niki both could not have survived, or maybe just wouldn't have eaten if she hadn't come. We are slowly getting used to being able to get the amoeba of children out the door. :) The older 4 have adjusted fairly well and are mostly being very helpful. One month has passed since Ford was born. This is the most recent picture below is sleeping, smiling Ford on the couch. Ford started off with strong resemblances to Law, but has changed a lot into his own little person...with several chins. If you've called and we haven't gotten back to you, thank you for your patience. Getting on the phone these days seems near impossible!
Grandma and Ford.
Smiling in his sleep.

Maisy would hold Ford all day if she could.
4 tough kids! :)
This one just makes me laugh.


That's a good wife who lets her husband go to the baseball game with a one week old! :)
Cousin Matt came to visit us.

Does this look like a trip to the ER waiting to happen or what?

Deuteronomy 10:18

He defends the cause of the fatherless and the widow, and loves the alien, giving him food and clothing.
