The Coleman's have entered the building!

Hello World! This is the first of what we hope to be a regularly updated (at least weekly) blog site that will allow you to glimpse inside the walls of our home and hearts. We have a wonderful family that has been brought together by God himself...and Chris and I are so honored and humbled to have been chosen...so with that I say, "The Coleman's have entered the building!"

Funny enough, that is exactly what I feel is proclaimed from the proverbial mountain top or loud speaker anytime me and my family enter a local restaurant, neighborhood grocery store or any other public building. Having a family of seven, we can no longer "slip in quietly" even when we try. :)

What's even funnier is the look of "Are they all yours?" as we come though the door - no words, the look says it all - to which I smile and reply, "yes, they are all mine." Thinking that I have some sort of mind reading power...the next thing I hear is "Well, your children are beautiful". I can't help but giggle....I mean - they see Chris, me and then the line of children that never seems to end....
