Leaving the Birdie's Nest

One phase of the Little Bambino's life has come to a close, as the next one opens the doors today.

Last Thursday was Jaxson's last day with Birdie, whom has been taking care of him during the week since he was 8 weeks old. She has been his mom, grandma, friend, teacher, and most importantly; she has been nothing but a blessing to our family.

No doubt in my mind that she has helped make him the cool kid that he is. Also, no doubt in my mind that our next child will once again pass through Birdie's screen door. Hands down the highlight of my day is when I would swing by and see my son running through Birdie's screen door yelling, "Bub-bye" and following it up with a no-look wave back to the door.

For all the kids that have passed through that door over the years, we want to thank you Birdie, and your helpers, for all you do. You will never be famous or a millionaire off of what you do, but the impact you have on children is worth more than any bag of money could ever pay for. You have a special place with us and the little guy will stop by and let you know how he is doing.
