Last night, I went in to give the boys a kiss goodnight after Daniel had put them to bed. Both were awake chatting, and Everett had the closet light on and was searching through his Dr. Seuss books. When I entered the room, both boys froze because they knew it was "bedtime."
Liam whispers, "Mom, can I read Everett one more Dr. Seuss book before we go to sleep?"
I reply, "Sure. What book do you want to read?"
"The Best Nest. Isn't that one of your favorites, Mommy?"
"It sure is!"
Everett reached for the book, cuddled close to his brother, and Liam began reading. I smiled, blew kisses, and walked back to bed.
It was such an AWESOME moment!
I am overwhelmed with gratitude to God for His abundant goodness to our family. Providing Daniel and me with two beautiful boys. Providing Liam and Everett with such a strong brotherly love. And giving me the life and breath to love these boys another day, another night.

About Me
- The Somerville Four
- There once was a boy who met a girl. They met in a sign language class at 17. They dated for 3.5 years and decided it was time to tie the knot. Seven years later, their first boy was born. Almost three years later, another boy arrived. Now, what started as two, by God's grace became four.
