Siblings are a blessing

Siblings are such a blessing for our children. They learn to share not only toys and space but love as well. Ours generally love each other and spending time with one another. And this is how you know they realize that they are a gift.

Sarah: "You know what I wish....that when you wanted a baby, as soon as you want it God would start it growing."

Many days later....

Mom: "What do we need from the grocery store?"

Luke: "I know, it would be cool if we could go and get another kid there!"

It fills my heart to know they love each other and would like another person to add love to our home. And so we wait....not entirely patiently at times. But we talk about the will of God and God's timing. We let God know we are ready, and we realize that perhaps love will come when God knows the time to be right.
