It makes for a sweet picture, but this moment is not nearly as cuddly as it looks.
Jacob isn't giggling about Balaam's donkey striking up a conversation with his rider. He's screaming to be let down.
Caleb is plugging his ears and humming in a desperate attempt to drown out his brother.
Abby has retreated to her first and only coping mechanism, sucking her thumb as she prays silently that God would please send her a nice, quiet sister next time.
And all the while, Daddy does his best to restrain a 4-year-old, a 3-year-old and a 1-year-old on his lap so he can get through one little story.
It might be time to rethink our bedtime routine.
