WildLife Update!

Ok....here's the update on the Hawk...

1. We named him. Even though he really isn't OURS, he did hang out with us all Saturday morning, so the kids have claimed him. His official Allen Family name is "Tony Hawk".
2. He is a 1st year red-tailed hawk.
3. The director for the Wildlife Center where he was taken said he ate a rat Sunday and is getting a little stronger. They will care for it and then if he survives and if he gets strong enough, he will be released.

Welcome to our family blog! Life is crazy and get's more so by the minute. Our twins, Austin and Julia were born in October 2000 when I was 35 and Kevin was 33, and Andy, our youngest, came along 2 years and 3 days later. I thought that when our kids were small and we has all 3 in diapers at the same time for over a year that we had met and conquered our biggest challenge. HA! If there is one thing we've learned it is that when we say so long to one particularly difficult season of parenting, an even more difficult one replaces it!

Our kids are high energy, creative, entertaining and smart little suckers.... Are we doing a good job raising them? Who knows...but we love them to death and while they give us a run for our money every day of the week, they still head out the door successfully mastering the art of being acceptable to society. So far, so good!

Of course we don't attempt to do it alone, and give God all the glory for the interesting little persons he has created and give thanks that he chose us to be their caretakers. Well, most days. On occassion we do question what he was thinking...
