Welcome to Profoundlyseth
Here you'll find the family journal of Ellyn McCall — El to nearly everyone — where daily moments, milestones, and memories are shared with candor and a touch of humor. The blog traces the family's path through life's unexpected turns, always trying to keep moving forward with laughter and grace.
Meet the Family
Every member of the family has a story worth telling, and together they form the heart of this blog.
Ellyn calls herself a reader, a shopper, creative but not crafty, and sarcastic — though she'd rather you said witty. She loves texting, procrastinates like a champion, and is almost never on time. She's doing her best to navigate life with laughter and grace, and she has six awesome kids.
Ava is dramatic, theatrical, and operatic, dreams of becoming an archaeologist, and is currently living her life as a musical. Jace is all green, all the time, very brave, the household's official bug-killer, and hopes to be a knight when he grows up. Eli is greatly loved and so, so greatly missed; he was 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 stormed 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 the character of our son, we say he is PROFOUNDLY SETH. Evany is the fifth piece in our family puzzle, entertaining us all daily and an immeasurable blessing to our home. Coen Rhys McCall is quickly learning to hold his own with his siblings, and he's pretty great.
