baby sam.
once again, i am an aunt! sam david was born last thursday morning to my brother and sister-in-law. i loved that i got to hold his tiny little body and pray for him while he was so new. i'm amazed by him. how perfect, how full of possibility. what a life he will have. he has this amazing older brother who is so incredibly excited for him to be here. jack walks around talking about 'baby sam' and 'sam david.' when they took him from the room for an exam, jack asked, 'where's baby sam? where did he go? mom. where's sam david? dad. where'd baby sam go?' as sam was getting his diaper changed, jack asks, ' what are you guys doin'?' he sees a picture of sam on a computer screen and goes running through the house, yelling, 
'MOM! COME SEE BABY SAM!' kristi, incidentally, was holding sam at the time. funny kid. kristi did a great job at preparing jack for sam. they talked a lot about him and how things would change, which has made for easy riding. a day or two before sam came, jack let kristi know that when the baby came, he was going to give it a hug and tell him how much he loved it. which he did. he has nothing but joy at his arrival and doesn't in the least feel put out by him. pretty amazing for a three year old. i love this little family of theirs. i'm so glad i'm a part of it.
