More joy for the Reynolds family started with a call from social services to ask if they would foster another new born baby boy! Only 1 answer to that question! A very big YES! I was so lucky to be able to go with them to the hospital to enjoy a few moments with this bundle of joy. I love seeing the look on Mary's face as she held him for the first time.
Even though we don't know if he will be a part of our family permanently, we know that we will just love him to pieces. If he goes back to his birth mother, we have given him the best possible start in life. The goal is always reunification with birth family. We'll just pray for the best outcome for everyone.

Talk about busy! These two little boys are 1 year and 1 week apart. When George was almost 3, his mother had her 3rd baby. Karen and John are 1 year, 3 days and 35 minutes apart in age and George's mother survived. I think Mary will too. I wish I could have stayed longer to help her but I'm gearing up for leading a team to Kenya. Luckily they have wonderful support from their church family and from Mark's mother.

When I asked Mary how Jackson was doing with the new little guy she said that he was alternately clingy and naughty. He has figured out that when Mom is busy with the baby, he can get into all kinds of things! Sounds like he is on the verge of turning into a toddler!
