Three Little Birds: A Thankful Heart

Thanksgiving....a time to give thanks, to reflect on every blessing, to spend time with those we love the most. Oh how I love this time of year! I cannot even begin to put into words how grateful we are, how abundantly blessed we are, how full our hearts are here at the Bird House! This time last year I was an extremely pregnant and cranky wife...anxious for the twins' big arrival yet still fearful of being a mommy to 2 babies and a sweet little toddler...savoring every moment with my little man with before his life would be turned upside down with the itty bitty sisters invading his turf. My how time has flown by...really flown...in what seems like, literally, the blink of an eye. This year has been such an amazing adventure. We became a family of 7...3 kids, 2 dogs, a mommy and daddy. Hudson has been a champ with his sisters and takes the role of Big Brother and Mommy's Helper seriously. He is all boy, still loves tractors and the outdoors, would rather "work" with GoGo and Daddy rather than play, and is always game to help. Isabelle and Sophia adore Hudson and constantly want to play with him and his stuff, are highly mobile, like to climb, love to be outside, would rather play with pots and pans inside my kitchen cabinets over toys, and will do just about anything to get their hands on any sort of portable electronic device. Daddy works so very hard...6 days a week...so I can be a stay-at-home mommy....Yay!!! I love every minute of it...the chaos, the mess, the meltdowns, the snuggling, the chasing, the giggles and grins, the pure joy that these little Birds bring to each and every day!!!
