Hudson's Last Day at Mrs. Janice's

My last day to drop Hudson

off at Mrs. Janice's.

Cue the tears:(

Especially mine:(

I just couldn't help but be

so teary eyed over this day.  

I will FOREVER be indebted to this

angel on Earth...Mrs. Janice. 

I just don't have words adequate

enough to describe the blessing

of Janice, Adrienne

and these sweet children......

Adrienne took care of Hudson

at my house in the mornings

when I first went back to work...

he was so tiny and she was 

so perfect with him.    

The Thursday/Friday Gang...

Huds, Ella, Beau, Hank

And of course, Baby Bax!

I worried over Hudson being with 

a baby since he was so much older...

and just how hard it would be for Mrs. 

Janice.  I was so wrong!  So wrong!

Hudson LOVES babies...especially

this one.  It turned out to be

such a sweet, sweet blessing 

for Hudson to get to be a 

"Big Brother" of sorts:)

In true Janice and Adrienne fashion,

they had lots of fun planned for the

last day of "school"!!!!

 This crew is the BEST!!!!!!!!!!

 We love love love Miss Adrienne!!!

 Good Times!!!!!!!!!!

 Just thankful.  

 So very, very thankful.  

 God Bless Mrs. Janice!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

In the days leading up to the last day

of school, it being the end of 

our Mrs. Janice days were most on my

heart.  For anyone who has ever left 

your babies with someone, you KNOW.

You just know.  

There is NO greater gift a person

can give to a mother than to love

and nurture and care for her children

when she can't be with them.  Janice

gave me this gift with Hudson.  

For five years, my little Hudson spent

his mornings with Mrs. Janice

and not one day, not a ONE, 

did I ever worry or have doubts

about leaving him.  In fact,

I often told people he was better

off with her;) and that's truth!  

Janice is the kindest person I know.

She is a living, breathing Proverbs 31 woman.

She truly is.  

As I drove to her house on the last

day of school, the tears just fell

from my eyes in thanks to the

good Lord for her and all that

she is and has been to my little family...

because she certainly helped raise

Hadlee and Hudson and nurtured

all of us along the way.

But most of all to my little Hudson...

all five years of his sweet little life.  

He loves Mrs. Janice SO much.  

I will always think of 

Janice for this verse...

And just like that I had a little

boy ready for kindergarten!
