Here is Karsten's 3 year old picture. I had to take it before he got a haircut and all his precious curls were gone. I love his curls. I wonder if they're gone forever, or if they'll come back when his hair grows longer again.
What a cutie! All of them are so sweet! Send me your email for my blog, I'll send ya an invite! It was so good to chat it up with you a few weeks ago, you look awesome! chucksgirl48@gmail.com
You know some people say they look just like their dad, and some people say they look just like their mom, but everyone agrees that they all look alike. I guess they just must be a NEVA STUART MIX.
That's me. Mom. Just like I always wanted to be. A mom. A super mom, no less. Six kids later I realize that being a mom is the hardest thing I've ever done, and super certainly doesn't happen very often. There're no All-State Honors, no A grades given, no pictures in the paper or stats on how many diapers you changed in one day. No rewards if you can get your kids to eat their veggies, and you know, there really is nothing to say that you are doing your job as a good mom or not. And so you get to choose... okay, good, great or awesome. Me, I'm probably just okay. That's a tough one for me to swallow when I've always excelled in everything I've done. So I've found that the key is to start each day and give it your best, knowing that your awards will come in happy smiles, hugs with sticky hands, and "I love yous" that melt your heart. And you know, I guess there really could be no better award than those big brown eyes looking at you with love. So though it is hard, very hard, I just take it one smile, one hug and ONE DAY AT A TIME.

Love this kid! And this pic! Actually, it's the background on my computer...that's how much I love it!
What a handsome little guy! Can definitely tell he belongs to you! I'm afraid the curls might not come back :( I know they haven't for some.
I love this darling boy! Love the curls! Danny had curls too. Karsten has a great smile and such a cute face for sure!
I can't believe how big he is getting. I love that he asks the baby how she got so pretty...that is the best!
