Three-oooh is the magic number (or is it?)

Yesterday we took S to the egg hunt/hayride at Buchinsky's house. (F was at RU and G at a bday party.) We have been doing this for years now, except usually we have a heap of eggs to cover all 3 boys. This year, we took our required 14 per child and they didn't even fill a basket.
Hanging out with just S reminded me of hanging out with little F. F was an only child for 5 years. It's eery how the day took me back to when we just had our little family of 3.
For so long we really thought we might only have 1 child (ok, Jack maybe didn't, but I sure did). As I think of how full and fantastic and loud and dirty and chaotic and laughable and marvelous our family is now, I am so grateful G and S could join us.
Did you also notice the mystery guest who joined us for the day?

That's not Bill Supa is it?

I love it when I realize that I wouldn't miss the filth and chaos. Sometimes I get so mad about all the filth and chaos around here...but, in truth, I wouldn't change a thing.

Was the mystery guest the huge back hoe?

Yeah! Our little "Flat" friend made it all the way from India via Sri Lanka. Way to go, kid.

I had to go back and look and saw Flat Stanley. I love these little surreal moments.
