I'm a Grandmother!

Well, finally yesterday, 8 days overdue my first grandchild arrived! We have a grandson who entered the world yesterday afternoon at a whopping 10 pounds 5 ounces. Of course he is the most beautiful baby in the world-no really he is. My son and daughter in law prefer not to have his picture out here so I am abiding by their wishes and showing you the beautiful Willow Tree grandmother figurine that my dear DIL gave both me and her mother at her baby shower. Isn't she the best? The baby and his parents are doing fine and he is a very calm baby, just like my son was so hopefully he will continue to be this way. My son was very relaxed and mellow as a baby and was a great sleeper so we'll see how his son does. In the meantime I am just soaking in all the wonderfull baby smells and touching his soft, soft skin. The best medicine ever created.

  1. Congratulations - to you and the happy parents, too *s* Of course I am quite partial to the date as my girl was born (late) on the very same day.

I pray that risen from the dead,
In glory I will stand,
A crown perhaps upon my head,
And a needle in my hand.
