"The fundamental mission of motherhood now is the same as it always was: to nurture, protect, and instruct children, to create a home environment that enables them to learn and grow, to help them develop a heart for God and his purposes, and to send them out into the world prepared to live both fully and meaningfully."

-Sally Clarkson from the Mission of Motherhood

Clark's first playgroup

Yesterday Clark got to have the spotlight for a while.
He had his first very own playgroup date. In case you've started counting, there were THIRTEEN babies there, and unbelievably, only ONE was a girl. :)
That's right, twelve bouncing baby boys. They ranged in age from 3-9 months, and were all darling!
This picture cracked me up because narry a one is looking at the camera, Clark is digging through my friend, Brooke's, diaper bag, Lucca was the king of the excersaucer, and we've got a couple screaming bloody murder. It was SO funny trying to take this picture.
front row: Bennett, Mase, Ethan, Evan (twins--could have those mixed up, Will
second row: Griffin, Clark, Liam, Cullen (also twins), Miles, Hunter
back row: Lucca, Jane

can't WAIT to see these babies grow up together!

my favorite thing about yesterday {besides meeting and hanging out with the mommies} is wondering who of these will turn into griffin's newest best friends. oh, how great that we get to journey through life together and that our children are blessed by so many other families. i think we're lucky indeed!

and i've been laughing at my own pics of them all too.

Oh my goodness would you stop it with all those PRECIOUS babies. It is too much darlingness in one picture. How fun for the Clarkster to have a play group just for him. Kindof makes me wish I had another little man...and lived in Waco ;)

Hey Katy,

Found your blog when I made a comment on Meg's. I was the other mama with twins at the playgroup. Just wanted to say thanks again for hosting. It was so much fun getting to meet other moms of boys the same age as mine. Looking forward to playing again!!
