Unexpected Company! Welcome Spring!


While we were on vacation, a mother robin made her nest on an upstairs' windowsill. Yesterday when we discovered it, there were 2 eggs. Today there are 3 blue eggs. It takes about 14 days for the baby birds to hatch, and then another 2 weeks before they're able to leave the nest. We are so excited to watch this process up close without distrubing the nest or bothering the mommy bird. Fascinating!

Let us know when they hatch. Ava and I would love to come see those sweet baby birds. What a neat way to see God's beauty... literally right outside your window.
