The Nelson Family: wonder & shades of brown
http://nelsonthirteen.blogspot.com/2012/11/wonder.html
November 9, 2012. Wonder and shades of brown. I have believed the lie that wonder is something that is given to me by someone else. That it is fire and flurry, the crashing of might and might, the explosion of flame. Dazzle and daring and the fluorescent spectacular. But the truth is that none of this is. Not really. There is nothing passive about true wonder. It is not dependent on bigness or limited by smallness;. It is not the response to entertainment or to spectacle. Starts being about the branch.

The Nelson Family: February 2012
http://nelsonthirteen.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html
February 29, 2012. We've been texting, and talking, and stalking Instagram for hours, just waiting and waiting for this. Moment. After eight months, Ethan's finally home! Thanks to Stef and Tammy Rodgers for the Instagram pics! February 26, 2012. Surprisingly, it cleaned up so well that, minus an empty paint can, you can't even tell any paint had been spilled on the floor at all! We thought these pictures were ever so much more interesting than any real. February 14, 2012. Love of every love the best!

The Nelson Family: June 2012
http://nelsonthirteen.blogspot.com/2012_06_01_archive.html
June 29, 2012. I've made it a priority this summer to photograph each of the kiddos on a regular basis.to document their personalities and jot down some of their favorite things.to remember them as they are right now. It's hard to capture the essence of a person in a single paragraph or series of photos, but oh well. It's a start! I love these girls. Grow up, they want to be mommies and princesses. :) They're best friends and do absolutely everything. Bicycles, ice cream, and old books? June 28, 2012.

The Nelson Family: July 2012
http://nelsonthirteen.blogspot.com/2012_07_01_archive.html
July 30, 2012. View from our windows this morning. Behold, I go forward, but he is not there,. And backward, but I do not perceive him:. On the left hand when he is working, I do not behold him;. He turns to the right hand, but I do not see him. But he knows the way that I take. When he has tried me, I shall come out as gold. My foot has held fast to his steps;. I have kept his way and have not turned aside. I have not departed from the commandment of his lips;. What he desires, that he does. We spent we...

The Nelson Family: Esme.
http://nelsonthirteen.blogspot.com/2012/12/esme.html
December 11, 2012. This beautiful little girl came into the world this morning, and we're all pretty thrilled! Esme Gabrielle Rodgers. She was born three weeks early and she's a tiny thing at just six-and-a-half pounds, but she's healthy and making Stef and Ethan as happy as can be! Also, Josh and Suzi announced the upcoming arrival of baby #six in June! That will mean thirteen siblings and nieces and nephews under ten years old, so you can imagine the fun we'll have! We're so very, very blessed.

April 30, 2012. Skyler and I were blessed to be able to spend some time in Florida, Tennessee, and North Carolina this month [we're actually still in NC.]. Two of my twelve goals for 2012 were to take a road trip somewhere, anywhere, and to swim in the ocean.something I haven't done in 11 years. So now I can check those off my list. :D And I definitely miss the beach! I just loved how the same little, local beach could look so different every time we stepped onto it. While we've been away!

The Nelson Family: August 2012
http://nelsonthirteen.blogspot.com/2012_08_01_archive.html
August 17, 2012. These are that day. 8220;And how could we endure to live and let time pass. If we were always crying for one day or one year to come back. If we did not know that every day in a life. Fills the whole life with expectation and memory. And that these are that day? Out of the Silent Planet. Enjoying the last of our carefree summer days. Harvesting the garden. Preparing to begin a new school year. Sewing.lots of sewing! August 6, 2012. August 1, 2012. These are my favorites.
