[With Theresa rapidly catching up to Agnes in height--and Margaret not far behind--I realized this might be our last chance for a "stair-step" photo. Wish we'd taken one every year!]

Merry Christmas, have a wonderful 12 days of Christmas!!
Beautiful photos of a beautiful family. They all have such sweet faces. And goodness, how much Agnes looks like you! (That's a compliment to her ;-)) May God bless you all for the coming year.
Wonderful photo! As mother of four boys and one girl, I am a bit envious of all the female companionship you have! When my daughter, who is my eldest, leaves home I will probably grow a beard from all the testosterone in the air around here...
Has anyone mentioned how beautiful your family is?! My oldest boys are doing the same thing your girls are, getting to the same height at the same time. Oh, it goes so fast!
What a beautiful and blessed family! I can see God's light shines through each of them...which in turn is a beautiful reflection of their parent's love for them and the Lord!
Hi Alice....i believe its not too late to wish your lovely family a NEW YEAR FULL OF FAITH, SOUND HEALTH, ENDLESS ENERGIES AND FINE RELATIONSHIPS.
I can eny you with your six lovely girls and a boy.... I came from a family of 8 siblings- 7 girls & a boy. When we spread our wings to most continent of the world... In one of my calls to my mother she said " it seemed I have no 8 children. the home is quiet now. " I can hear from her voice how we have been a clutter of joy ang chaos but full of love". This statement is one of my happy memories of her. I buried her 3 years ago with gratitude !
Merry Christmas, have a wonderful 12 days of Christmas!!

I love the stair steps, and the outfits, and the smiles, and the Christmas cheer. Beautiful.
Merry Christmas and prayers for the safe arrival of your newest stair step.
