The love you have for your boys is palpable in every word! It’s profound! He has never been in Christians shadow as you have just proved. He walks in the sun hand in hand with him. They fit together perfectly! As he grows along side his brother you know who he’s going to thank for his wonderful life? His amazing mom and dad! You have given the world two amazing young man and the world will be better with them.

Chandler is such a joy! I have no doubt that he will be blessed by being Christian's brother and Christian will be blessed by being Chandler's brother. Without struggle, you cannot learn perseverance. Without putting others first, you cannot learn selflessness. Without trusting in God to work all things out for good, you do not learn to rely on your faith. I'm sure it's already been said, but when you look at the picture, it's as if the light from Chandler is passing through to Christian creating a glow around him. Much love to your family this holiday season!Kathleen Alexanderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08448429019094080410noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4766365874299391708.post-52987199941202016412017-11-22T21:17:10.041-06:002017-11-22T21:17:10.041-06:00I see book 2 coming soon

But I wanted to say, I think Chandler is adorable! He sure is a special little man :) he sure has taken on a big roll. But, he's still so happy and loving, no matter what. It really made me happy. Christian really does have, the best little brother. Both of your boys are so handsome. I think you are such a wonderful mother. I wish you and your family, the very best.

I truly believe that they are better human beings because of their brother. More compassionate and truly understand what life is about. Our lives may be different then most but it is our life. My boys are men now and I can tell you that they are the man they are because of growing up a special brother. Look forward to seeing what they will do for this world. I know they will make an impact. mominPAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12568304634960699082noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4766365874299391708.post-44644072274072868872017-03-18T09:52:52.786-05:002017-03-18T09:52:52.786-05:00Beautiful.Beautiful.JanL1951https://www.blogger.com/profile/10296908456816272272noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4766365874299391708.post-35910299574659991592017-03-18T09:43:47.165-05:002017-03-18T09:43:47.165-05:00This is amazing & Chandler is amazing.
