Sprinkle!

A week ago we had a "Sprinkle" for my oldest daughter Courtney. She is pregnant with their 7th child....yes, 7th! And it really might sound like a lot of kids but when we are all together it really doesn't seem that way. Maybe we are all used to it or maybe, just maybe, we all just love being part of a big family! Some might call us crazy, and I say us because we are all part of one big family and we all support each other and this was our way to show Courts that we are behind her and Dave 100%. They are such fantastic parents and a wonderful couple, it's amazing to watch them, we could all learn a few things about communication and respect from these two. And I'm not trying to preach, just wanted to say out loud what I feel, that if there is ever a couple who can handle a large family these two can. So our 3 daughter's got this idea to surprise their older sister with a baby shower and they actually pulled it off! Even with a couple of the kids knowing about it, Courtney was totally surprised! So I just want to say we all love you so much and can't wait for another pretty Smith baby to get here! (And you better wait til the 12th, that's my pick in the baby pool!) Love you Courts!
