A new chapter

Today marked the end of an era.  After nearly 6 years of having a crib in our house, it is packed up and ready to go to a friend.  It served us well and I may have shed a tear or two today, but I'm counting my blessings and so proud of our three growing children and enjoying watching them discover more about themselves every day.  I always dreamt of becoming a mom and it is so much MORE than I ever imagined. More love, more joy, more work ;), more fun! Happy Mother's day! 

Taking down the crib and checking out the bed.

After 9pm and Ben was roaming around and found his buddy. He eventually made it back to his own room.
