0–6 Months: Seth's Earliest Days
Here is where Seth's story begins — his first half year, gathered in the 0–6 Months category. Read on as the journey carries into the next chapter of his life.
Get to Know the Family
I'm Ellyn, and this is where I share about faith, family, and the daily whirlwind of raising six amazing kids. I love God, my children, and my family, and I read and shop whenever there's a spare moment. I'm creative without being crafty, and I like to think I'm witty rather than sarcastic. I love to text, I put things off with real dedication, and I'm almost never on time. Through all the unexpected twists and turns, I try to walk through life with laughter and grace.
Ava is dramatic, theatrical, and operatic, and she hopes to become an archaeologist — for now she's living her life as a musical. Jace is all green, all the time, very brave, and our household's official bug-killer; he wants to be a knight when he grows up. Eli was greatly loved and is so, so greatly missed — stillborn into our waiting arms and born alive into the arms of our Savior. Seth is our answered prayer and a miracle in his own right: he arrived early with a long list of issues, yet he has pushed through every difficulty with the grace of God. Diagnosed as profoundly deaf as an infant, he received bilateral cochlear implants at 8 months of age, and after seeing his character we say he is PROFOUNDLY SETH. Evany is the fifth piece in our family puzzle, entertaining us daily and blessing our home immeasurably. Coen Rhys McCall is quickly learning to hold his own with his siblings — and he's pretty great.
