I really enjoyed seeing all the things you are thankfull for! I also would love to see a post about how you folded that fitted sheet. I didn't even know they could look like that!!!
Wonderful!!! The one of your father and the 'knowing of the twins'...that is a heart breaker!

Hey... how do you fold a fitted sheet perfectly?? :) Actually...I loved your post. Thank you for sharing your wonderful family. Blessings!
I loved this post and seeing all of your pictures!
My favorite, I got to see your mom finally! I've seen your aunt, but not your mom! Awesome1
Wow. What an awesome list. I love the pictures. I think it's wonderful that your son has learned to save money at such a young age. Wish I could teach my 24 year old how to do it.

Your post made me cry, because I could feel the truth in every one of your words. How beautiful that you know what to be thankful for and how lovely that Jesus has given you the gift to express your feeling so well. I love all of your babies, and that your dad got to enjoy them before he went to be with Jesus. Happy Thankful Thursday. Karen
You've got me crying here. I love the photo of your dad with one of the twins. So sweet. I wish my mom could have gotten to know my last three kids. She was amazing.
Mmmm...dark chocolate milk shakes.
How did you get all three of those kiddos asleep in the same place??? I'm in awe. We're about to move and my kids are going to have to share a room, which they have not done before, and I'm terrified!
BTW, I have you an award over at my blog, swing by when you get a chance!
Ok, I have to know how you fold the fitted sheet perfectly!

I'm enjoying your blog... such sweet pictures! I could definitely learn a thing or two from you on how to [neatly] fold a fitted sheet!
