Little just feels BIG when your life is in perspective. When I'm holding my newborn Ellenburg babe, I know he won't stay this little for long. I find that I make everything linger a little longer just because I know he's the last baby. {Unless Michael makes good on his dream of adopting 6 more children}. 

Knowing that I'm rocking him a little longer and holding him a little tighter, I almost feel bad about nicknaming Madison, "the Watcher"....Everywhere Jefferson is, you will find Madison. Her one liner is, "I just want to see his little face."

It's hard to argue with that.

So even though Madison {more than the boys} are constantly fascinated with New Baby Jefferson's every move, keeping him more awake than asleep, resulting in keeping me more awake than asleep - I embrace the love. The love of this great big family I've always dreamed of. The love these four kids have for eachother and us. The love of a wonderful man to make this dream a reality. And the reality that Little is the new Big thing, and he'll keep growing ... whether I like it or not.
