My really good friend,
Jannae, had her second baby this last Saturday. He is darling and I am extremely happy for their little family. Yesterday, our boys got to meet this precious baby. All of the boys got to hold him and they "oh-ed and ah-ed" over him. IJ was, of course, really taken with him. He kept asking if he could hold the baby again and sat right by whoever was holding him. After Jannae left, IJ came up to me and whispered, "It would be really neat to have a baby brother, Mom." I had to then tell him (which I know he already knew) that we were not having any more and he would just have to enjoy Jannae's baby. He got really teary eyed at this, but recovered quickly.
I am amazed at how sensitive and caring IJ is. My sister's daughter, May was so taken with him at Christmas and Jannae's older boy, Tyler, loves him. He is very aware of little kids and their needs and will go out of his way to play with them and include them. What a great Dad he will be someday!
I am always in awe at how precious and unique our boys are. We are truly blessed to have each of them in our lives.

I love this. IJ is a special boy and I love that he loves the babies so much!
IJ is not only a great kid but a really good person. I think that little children sense that about him.
I also am in awe over your boys every time I am able to be with them! You are a wonderful mother! How amazing they are is a reflection on you. :)
i love isaac! it was definitely sweet to watch them all hold him.
