A Day With My Nieces

I have the boys and my sister has the girls. A couple weeks ago I watched my nieces for a day and it was a blast. We have this great hiking trail near our house, and I decided to brave it and bring all six kids exploring. One hour of hiking and no complaining! I was so proud of them.

I marvel at the individuality in each of the 6 kids, and I LOVE that they will have these relationships for life. What a gift. And yes, there is a big difference between boys and girls, no doubt about that!

March Birthdays!

My baby is 3! We had a fun day....chocolate chip pancakes and a trip to the Children's Museum. Then we were lucky to have Aunt Greta here for the family birthday party a couple days later. Happy birthday to daddy too!

Good Buddies
