The nest is full again. Hallelujah. And amen.














Waiting and anticipating...any moment when the college kids will pull into the driveway after a two-day road trip home from Auburn University. And yes, Scout, was very excited.










Paige pulled in about five minutes before her brother and confessed that she left him behind at a traffic light.


Next up...Ryan!









Reunited and it feeeeeeeels so good.

Wow. You have some beautiful kids. It is so inspiring to see them college age (mine are still 8,7, and 4). Clearly, you have done a wonderful job with God's help!

P.S. I just have to say that you look AMAZING! I hope to look like you when my kids are that age. :)

Glad your kiddos are back and safe! Enjoy them for the summer. Also, Happy Mother's Day! I really thought you had a post up, but I can't seem to find it. Either way, I hope it was wonderful!

Awww. That is so sweet. My son home-schooled for the 7th and 8th grade and returned to school for his freshman year (now) and i cried 3 out of 6 days when he started back. I missed him SO VERY much. My daughter has been HS'd for 3 yrs and plans to return to school for 7th grade - aug 09. I know i will cry even more when she starts. Oh- our kids...thank you Jesus.

I'm with you! Our nest if full again after our oldest of 5 returned home from Samford University this weekend. Nothing like having all your babies sleeping under your roof again. Such peace.

WAR EAGLE!! :)

I just finished reading "5 conversations" and decided to peek in here. In scrolling down a few posts I see that your kids are at AU...we have one (middle of 3 older ones that I love like my own) who graduated last year from Auburn!! I also have two daughters who are 3 and 5 years old.

Can't wait to peek around here more...
