  1. SOOO precious...I just want to reach thru the screen and hold him!! I love the picture of Ethan and Sarah, nothing better than mommy and baby snuggle time. So glad to hear that he's still gaining and growing!

  2. He is so tiny, I wish I could be there and get to hold him. Ethan will probably be walking by the time we get to meet him.

  3. What an adorable little peanut! He is surely a blessing as are all or your beautiful children. I hope Anderson and Lyndsey are adjusting quickly to being big brother and sister and momma's helpers with little baby Ethan.

  5. Wow, he's amazing! How such a small person can have perfect little fingers & toes is beyond me. Glad to see he's still growing and doing well, thanks for showing us how cute he is.

  6. We haven't met, but I just finished reading your blog and I had to send you a note. My husband is the pastor of the United Methodist Church in Brunswick, ME. We have been praying for you through the invitation of Tiffany Karnes. We actually have known the Karnes family since 1996 when Roman was just a teenager! I wanted to let you know that I have been blessed by your story -particularly the way you are able to recognize the God sightings in the midst of difficult circumstances. I believe this is truly the life God wants us to live and I appreciate you sharing your amazing faith. You will continue to be in my prayers!

Have a blessed week and love to your parents for us. Steve and Letha

    Hiding Place
    Jared Anderson
    I have found myself a hiding place
    I have found myself a secret space
    In the shelter of Almighty's love
    In the safety of the Savior's arms.

    I found myself a hiding place
    I found myself a secret space
    In the refuge of the Father's care
    In the cleansing blood of Jesus there.

    chorus
    I will run to the hiding place
    I will run to the hiding place
    Draw me ever closer to look upon Your face
    I will run to the hiding place.

    Bridge
    Though my fears may overwhelm me
    And troubles, they surround
    Though the wind rise up to take me
    My hiding place is already found.

    I have found myself a hiding place
    I have found myself a secret space
    In the shelter of Almighty's love
    In the safety of the Savior's arms.

    I will run to the hiding place
    I will run to the hiding place
    Draw me ever closer to look upon Your face
    I will run to the hiding place.
