Stepped out my patio door the other day to take this picture. I get teary sometimes watching them like this... Sights like this are like God reminding me how good life is and how thankful I should be for His blessings.
I LOVE this pic too! Is it strange that it brings tears to my eyes too? I can almost feel a slight breeze and hear birds chirping in the background. Happy families are such a blessing to my heart!
Ahh, the joy in being a parent! You made me teary too, Shelly. Such beautiful children. Such beautiful children that God has lent to us to share in our lives. So thankful for them. (and you!)
Mom to three fabulous heart-grown kiddos; Adam, Liana and Aleksandra (Aleksa or Leks for short), adopted 8/04 from Odessa, Ukraine, and home-grown blessings Abrielle born 11/07, Brynn born 1/10, and newest surprise due 8/11...

Cleaning and scrubbing can wait til tomorrow, For babies grow up, I've learned, to my sorrow. So quiet down cobwebs, Dust go to sleep. I'm rocking my baby, and babies don't keep.
