the teers
for anyone who knows this family, you will know what i mean when i say “the best”. they are loving and kind and fun and quirky and beautiful (like seriously, how did they all get so beautiful)…the good stuff.
they’ve spent a lot of time in the hospital lately as there was a health scare (which is putting it SO lightly) with “the matriarch” 🙂 (is it okay if i call you that miss j?). when all seemed to be crumbling, this family united in a way that was so unbelievable and so pure and so not of this world…it was something you don’t see much of these days. it seems that often in times of crisis, people turn on one another and look for someone to blame, but these good people turned TO jesus and drew together so tightly that there was no force on earth or any other place that could break them. their faith was increased instead of weakened. and as they loved God and each other, they saw healing.
so why am i telling you all of this? well, the family was back in the hospital this week. but this time it was a celebration. and i got to be there (i may not have been invited, but that’s what’s so great about this family…they said “come on in”). they just added a little girl to their brood and their boys were on their way over to meet her for the first time.
and then there are all the gorgeous aunties. so many gorgeous aunties.
how much do you love how this papa is looking at his baby girl?
i didn’t even plan on blogging this, but i felt like a thank you was in order and this was something small i could do to say it. thank you for the amazing example you have set for me of what it means to believe. and hope. and really love. like really love. even this mama, who lost 40% of her blood post-labor the night before, says about 5 minutes after i got there…”and how are you?”. like i said: the best.

[…] two years ago, i tiptoed into my dear friend ashley’s hospital room to meet her brand new baby girl. little did i know, her boys were right behind me and i got to not only witness, but capture them seeing her for the first time. […]
Miss Ashley was one of my very first pictures of what living with Jesus looked like and she still does all the way in Canada. Thanks for showing off their beautiful family and even more beautiful hearts.
