Frodo Feet


One of the first things the nurse told me about Ben was that he had huge feet. She pulled out the foot print card and it filled the whole thing! I'm already thinking,"This kids going to cost me a fortune in shoes!" I call him "Frodo", the hobbit from the Lord of the Rings movies. Hobbits are little people with inordinately big feet. It is amazing the little differences with Ben. So many of his features are 'new' to our family & none of his other sibs have exhibited them. His sparse & spiked hair is a hoot. They kind of match his pointed ears. He has no eye lashes to speak of & he constantly 'grunts' and makes noises. We are relieved that he is eating well now and gaining lots of weight. Beth is almost back to her old self for which we all Praise our Lord. Ben is 'fearfully & wonderfully made'.
