I was devastated when I found out I was pregnant for a fifth time. I was SO done after my fourth. I had prayed that I would not get pregnant again. And now, six years later, I continue to thank God every single day that he did not give me what I wanted, but instead granted me the adorable bundle of cuteness we know as Noah. Noah is a delight. I love every square inch of him, including his world famous belly button. And every time I look at him, I have a flesh and blood reminder of the goodness of God's sovereignty, and how freeing it is to walk in faith that what God has planned for us is always best, and usually better than our wildest dreams.
Noah turned six years old on Monday. We had a party for him at Nelie's house Sunday after church. Here are a few shots i took:

Mathis was not a welcome surprise to me either, but he has turned out to be the best surprise ever. Not that I want any more, but I'm just saying I can appreciate your post very much. :)
