This is a face only a mother could love, don't you think?  A family of cardinals made their home in a climbing rose bush just outside a window in our garage.  I stood on a bucket in the garage looking out the window to take this photo.  Lucy and Julia were able to take a peek and see the eggs before they hatched.  Ross even saw the daddy cardinal feeding the babies.  I love it when nature allows us a close up view of things like this!
Lucy and I are making a Spring photo book together.  We went outside a month or so ago and took photos of green shoots sprouting from the ground, buds on trees, and anything else that reminded us of Spring.  I printed the photos and put them in a little book for her.  We'll definitely add these and try to get a few more shots as the babies grow!  
I thought I saw a cardinal hanging around back there in the corner of our yard a few days ago. :) Hopefully we will see more of them soon! They are such beautiful birds!
