What It's Like.

Over the last (almost) six weeks we have been asked over and over what it's like with four kids in the house. I wouldn't be telling the truth if I told you it was always wonderful. It's at times overwhelming, there are times patience runs short and tears come easily, across the board.

And we only have four for half of the week!!!

But the good and the fun outweighs everything else. They are brothers and sisters and they do all love each other, even though the sibling squabbles seem to come especially easy for T and M these days.

Here's a few pictures and glimpses into what our life is like with four.

Both M and T love reading to H. And he is very attentive when they read to him, whether they are reading him Lightning McQueen or a princess story or in this case, the children's Bible.

T helping H get geared up for bed. Not many kids put on a helmet and knee pads before bed. We are wondering if H is moving past Lightning McQueen and onto Batman these days. Hmm.

T and M are always willing to hold E, as long as she's not crying. H has a really hard time keeping his hands off of E. Especially her face. We're working on this big time.

"What kind of family was I born into?!?!"
