Like arrows in the hand of a warrior are the children of one\u2019s youth. Blessed is the man who fills his quiver with them! He shall not be put to shame when he speaks with his enemies in the gate.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Pratt has openly discussed the joys of fatherhood,\u00a0telling E! last year that he\u2019s open to having a bigger family and will have as many children as God allows. He said last summer, \u201cI would love to have more, as many as the man upstairs will provide. We\u2019ll do it. I\u2019ll probably have to talk to Katherine about that, but my plan is, let\u2019s go.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In that same interview, Pratt revealed how he\u2019s grown as a parent over the years. \u201cI react maybe a little differently,\u201d he admitted. \u201cI don\u2019t roughhouse quite as much as I did. I kind of just want to cuddle both of them.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>However, he revealed that one thing about being a dad had stayed the same: \u201cThe high common denominator is just kind of this unquenchable desire to want to be close to them, be next to them, to protect them and love them. It\u2019s the best,\u201d Pratt gushed. Adding another bundle of joy to your family is always a blessing. The Pratt family is blessed to have three healthy, beautiful children. As for any children in the future, Chris Pratt is open to the idea, yet he\u2019s leaving it in God\u2019s hands.<\/p>\n<p>Chris Pratt may have been in the news recently over his Christian faith, but one thing that you can never deny is the love he has for his family. Many blessings to the Pratt family and their new bundle of joy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On Sunday, actor Chris Pratt and wife Katherine Schwarzenegger announced the birth of their new daughter,\u00a0Eloise Christina Schwarzenegger Pratt.
