"Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal." 2 Corinthians 4:16-18

Gateway's Baby Boom!

Some people say it must be in the water here at Gateway...haha. Well, whatever it is, these are the 6 newest additions to the houseparent staff here at GW! Starting back in July (I think) we have had a slew of baby girls born to houseparents! Thanks to a great idea from Stef Beer, we decided this was a great photo opportunity! I'll tell you, it is tough to get 6 babies to cooperate at the same time for a picture! But I think they turned out cute:) Layla didn't enjoy the photo shoot much, as you can tell in the second picture!

In the first picture:
(back row): Kylie Drayer (Bruce and Heather's), Talise Eisenmann (Darren and Britni's)
(middle row):Olivia Beer (Shane and Stefanie's), Layla (ours)
(front row): Josie Hodel (Dustin and Mandy's) and Madeline Suvar (Paul and Nichole's)

That is ADORABLE!! Great idea! You should take one like that every couple months - it would be so fun to look back on!

LOVE that last pic of Layla crying and the other babies giving her weird looks.

Too cute!
