Brothers and Sisters

A minute before we headed out for church today I convinced the children to line up on the couch for a picture.  Aren’t they adorable?  From left to right:

• Makayla – age 11
• Joseph – age 8
• Emma – age 6
• Daniel – age 5
• Oliver – age 3
• Caleb – age 23 months
• Mason – age 9 months

In the next four months four of them will have birthday (two just had birthdays this month).  Then they’ll be 11, 8, 7, 5, 4, 2, 1.  I love seeing the relationships that develop between my children.  They have very different relationships with each other, some being playmates, others are for snuggling up with, each has a favorite sibling to annoy, and all have a special sibling they seem to have extra special love for.  They are each a blessing in their own way!
