Easter surprises
Happy Easter, everyone! We have had quite an exciting day around here! You won't believe this, but this morning we had big snow going on here for about an hour or more! I don't think we've ever seen snow on Easter - it was a cool reminder that God can do anything whenever He wants to! He washes us white as snow!
Our kids were also surprised this morning when they found that the lily they killed and buried last night (Jesus) had grown into a beautiful full-grown plant this a.m.! We celebrated new life!
We chose this activity over Randy's first idea which was to surprise them with a dog on Easter morning!! God had mercy on us and we decided to put that one off for a while.
We're just praising God for His goodness, remembering His sovereignty, and enjoying all the many surprises He has given us on Easter Sunday! Oh yeah - there's one more. God surprised us with the news this morning that there is more new life to be celebrated. We discovered that we will have another little "egg" hatch sometime around the first of December! SURPRISE!!! (So much for the rhythm method)! Admittedly, we are in a bit of shock, but very happy and trusting God. This is all very funny since I just spent the last month cleaning out all our baby stuff and have not one piece of maternity clothing left! We love you guys! Pray for us!!

I am thrilled, thrilled, thrilled! (and surprised). I am praying for this new little life already. What an Easter blessing!!! God is so good. # 5's have a way of being extra special blessings. I am already clearing my schedule for November/December. :)
Randy and Anda,
We are so excited about another baby...I think Tod is a little jealous! So for Cary and Alan if you want to keep up Tod just has one thing to say 1-800-REVERSE. Really we are already praying for your new addition...Happy Easter!

Wow! Talk about a surprise - I woke up this morning still in shock! I am really happy for you guys and so excited about a new little niece or nephew! I can't imagine what a family of five will look like since someone has now officially broken the "four and no more" barrier - way to go! Love your family!

God is so good and full of surprises! Life in the Brown family is never boring. I must say that I am a little jealous! Do you think Alan would want a reversal for his 35th birthday? We love all of you (all 7!!!)

Congratulations Randy and Anda! This is so exciting! Too bad you already got rid of your maternity clothes.
