Gotta love those blue eyes!

This is one of my favorite pictures.  We took it at Sylvan beach a week ago.  Eli just wanted to be held so of course Daddy picked him up.  I love this little outfit he is wearing.  It matches his shoes perfectly.  Adrian is so happy to have another opportunity to raise a son.  I on the other hand was a little apprehensive about having to clean a male child, but it's going very well.  I haven't been shot at one time...yet!  As hard as it is with four children it seems like it gets a little easier everyday.

We found out today that the kid's dad is in jail again.  Evidently he beat their mom up because he was jealous of her working at Hooters and cut her hair off to the scalp.  This is the first time she has ever pressed charges against him.  The word on the street is she is trying to clean her act up so that she can get the kids back just long enough for them to be able to stay with their paternal grandmother.  Not a good thing for the kids.  If she was a good fit they wouldn't have been taken from her in the first place.  We will see what comes next.  How blessed our children are to not have to witness such hate.
