I Have 5

I have five amazingly beautiful children walking with me on this side of eternity. They are unique, and yet all bear an uncanny resemblance to one another. Yes, there are physical traits that tie them to each other…”Wow, you can sure tell she’s/he’s a Burns!” …but the things that bind them are deeper than physical attributes.

You see they belong to one another in all sorts of situations. When they are in the same room, it is a constant flow of making one another laugh. As I watch them separate and forge their individual friendships, they seem to continue to be the ones making laughter. Joy is their companion.

You see it in the way they attack something right off the grill:)

It’s there when being together is so fun that even the youngest ones want to stay up thru the night to partake of their togetherness, AND when the morning comes, and nobody awakens before 9am…A Burns LOVES their sleep!

You can’t miss the family resemblance when they have an opinion…=)

All of them have a song to sing…they are constantly creating a musical soundtrack to our lives…I wonder where that comes from;)

I am so fortunate…sigh…
