In the blink of an eye...




I honestly can't believe how quickly the last 6 years have passed.  I remember so vividly being wheeled down the hall in the hospital after the babies were born listening to the lullaby song they play everytime a baby is born. The nurse leaned down and whispered to me, listen they are going to play it  3 times in a row  just for you and your boys.  I remember feeling so overwhelmed at the thought of caring for 3 newborns but loving them so much the instant I saw them.
  What a precious gift they have been in my life.  I love all my boys so much but there is something special about having these 3 come together.  I told them today that they were such good friends in heaven that they told Heavenly Father that they couldn't come down without each other so he let them come together.  The look in their eyes told me what I was saying was true and they knew it.  There is a reason they are here together.  What a blessing.
Of course there have been crazy times as one would expect with triplets.  Once when they were about 2, I was in the grocery store with all 3 and an elderly gentleman stopped me and said, "Enjoy it while they are young because the years pass so quickly."  to which I responded.."Yes but some days seem to last FOREVER!!!"  
Overall, I have been amazed at the journey and so thankful my Heavenly Father would entrust me with such amazing boys.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TANNER, BRANDON AND COLE

I love you.
