"Come, darling, I want you to see how many children we have...if we count all their feet it makes fourteen."

"And if we count all their hands, too, it will make twenty-eight."

"And how about their fingers and toes?"

Even Papa was laughing now with Mama, "Oh, Pontus," she cried, "I think we are just the luckiest Papa and Mama on the whole of God's earth!"

(~Thyra Ferre Bjorn, Papa's Wife)

Yes and yes and yes! I am so very thankful for the dear little ones God has entrusted to our home, our care, our love.
