Over the past few weeks we had noticed a few birds hanging around our front door. One day Ashlee saw a mama bird next to the wreath on my front door?!? Wondering what she was doing there, we took a closer look.& noticed that right inside my wreath was a very well constructed bird nest with one egg inside. We think that the bird that built the nest had abandoned it because we had touched it, and well because it was on our FRONT door...not really the most ideal place for a bird to lay her eggs! Another bird must have come and taken her place & her nest, because a couple of days later, there were two more eggs in the nest, but they were obviously different from the first one. Thinking it was cute and wondering if the second mama bird would come back we left it there. The next day we noticed that not only had she not abandoned it she had been sitting on the eggs. I am not sure if they will ever hatch, but it is so cute to see her take care of her eggs!

As I was pondering Memorial day, I had a deep sense of gratitude in my heart for all of those who so bravely have fought/fight, & gave/give EVERYTHING they have....Many have even given their lives for the freedom's we enjoy every day. I just want to say THANK YOU!! To Veterans past and present, but especially to my sweet nephew who gave the ultimate sacrifice....his life!

This is the face that I have seen for the last 8 days! Ashlee has been one sick little girl! She hasn't had any spunk this last week. It started out as a strep infection..... After a few days she seemed a little better.....I just kept her rested and hydrated. But on Friday night she started running another fever, so on Saturday morning I asked her "do you need to go to the Dr?" Her response to me was "What for". I decided it was better to be safe than sorry, so we went to the Dr. and it was a good thing we did because she had pneumonia!!! I think after 8 days she is finally on the mend and was very happy to tell me that she can now breathe out of her nose.
Alyssa, One of Ashlee's best friends came by yesterday with a balloon and a box of popsicles! How sweet was that?!? It really made her day !!!
