Hey…can I tell you about my newest nephew? Thanks.
(Ah, the joy of being able to brag…and it being okay…) 
This little guy, Seth, belongs to Randy and Kari (Matt’s brother and his wife). They are in the process of adopting him….and really, really…the fact that God gave Seth to our family is one of the hugest blessings ever. You can read about their adoption journey on their blog.
See…just look at this sweet little boy. I LOVE all the rolls!!
Because we’re honoring mothers during the next several days…I’ll also add that Seth has a most wonderful mama! I LOVE how Kari loves Seth. It really is delightful to watch (and by watch…I mean listen to on the phone and read about on the blog and email…they live in CA…and that is not close to NE 
).
My favorite thing about the way Kari mothers Seth is in the way she is ALREADY bringing God into his life. From the time he was born…Kari has been praying with him and talking to him about God. And THAT is the very best way to mother.
Kari…I am amazed and challenged by your wonderful mothering skills.
And I am SO GRATEFUL that God has given our family Seth.
