...whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on thsese things. (Phillipians 4:8)

i love spring...


Earlier in the spring we had a mama robin lay her eggs in our school yard which was really exciting! It was such a blessing to be able to watch and it's really so amazing to see how God created the mama bird to know how to protect her baby's and everything. So I thought I'd share some of the pictures that I got with y'all so that you could see for yourselves why we had so much fun running out everyday to see if she had laid and egg yet or, later on, if they had hatched.

First we noticed the mama laying building her nest...
then one egg...
then another egg...

 and then finally, after 10 days of patience, two little baby birds!!!!!
A little older now.
 Seriously, how precious is this?
 
This was the last picture I was able to get before they flew away.

 Amelia found an unfortunately non-living egg across the road. The nest had been gotten by something and this one was left behind but, sadly, the mother never came back for it :(

Well, we've heard that robins sometimes lay eggs about three times a year so if it's true, well, y'all just might get to see some more pictures ;)

Have an awesome day!
