6 years ago today.....


It's A BOY!
Welcome to the World Henry McFatter Thrasher "MAC"
March 19, 2003

Who knew Mac would be the one who was born with a "song in his heart?" Not only was he, but he captured our hearts....from Day 1....Big Brother Brock threw him a party, we all napped with him and then through the years we've LAUGHEd with him....A LOT. Our sweet Mac----he loves the outdoors, he's a nurturer---of the soil and soul. He's comic relief. He's our Mac and we're celebrating him all day today. I love birthdays!

Things I love.....(not necessarily in order)


A sense of humor on St. Patrick's Day
A soft side
Grady
Snowballs in my freezer in March
Acoustic sunrise
The smell of good coffee
My Keurig coffee pot G gave me for Christmas
Violins
Rock Band at the Snyders
Brock telling me, "Wow Mom--you can REALLY talk! Sometimes it's so annoying." (I don't have to tell anyone the apple doesn't fall for from the tree)
That Mac puts my kisses in his pocket to save for later
My family's generous spirit
Hearing from old friends
Acolytes at church
Birthdays 
My i-phone (can't believe I'm admitting that)
Happys
Chardonnay
Jazz in the kitchen
Extra Virgin Olive Oil
The Beach
Mom coming to visit
Handwritten Letters
Long dinners
Long runs
Long playlists of Norah Jones
Sun-kissed kids
The sound of the washer and dryer and dishwasher running simultaneously
Patient school teachers
Sincerity
Humility
High thread count sheets
A new can of tennis balls
Optimism
