The past, present, and future of This Nest.
Gratefully.
Glimpses of our beautifully chaotic life, at www.ThisNest.com. Bird & Blue, college sweethearts still navigating all of the lessons and blessings we have continually been gifted for more than three decades. Proud (and sometimes exhausted) parents of five incredibly unique humans. Grateful grandparents of (so far) two precious grand-humans. We helped raise Bird’s seven siblings for nearly two decades. And we are pseudo-parents to so many other amazing humans who didn’t grow in my womb, but most definitely grew on our hearts. Along the way we have fallen numerous times but gotten back up one more than that, while balancing life and marriage and family and careers. It hasn’t always been easy…but it has always been worth it.
Thank you so much for sharing your family! I am also a mother of Biracial Children and its always nice to see other families like our own. We are just getting started on our adventure. I have a 6, 2 (Almost 3), and 1 year old all girls, that keep me on my toes all the time. 🙂 I cannot wait until our children start sports and really enjoy them. You have a beautiful family and reading your blog makes me see I have a long road ahead of me raising 3 biracial little girls. I could be more happy about the many years we have ahead. 🙂 Thank you and God Bless.
Wow! Thanks, Karissa! I know your baby girls keep you very busy, but try to enjoy every second of it…it goes so fast! Women used to tell me that when I was a new mother and I always sort of dismissed it, but they were SO right. Our oldest will be a senior this fall and I cannot believe it! I’m so happy you stopped by to read and share. I would love to hear more about your family, and I appreciate you sharing in mine 🙂 Come by the facebook page and feel free to post stories and/or pics too! Be blessed. ~ Donna
Donna, you’re family is so beautiful! I love what you are doing for your children. They will have pride in being beautifully mixed.
