Baby
Family Fun Day
It was a wonderful family day today. First thing this morning we went to church and my grandson was an altar server. I also got to see a good friend preach who I haven’t seen for about a year. Then we went to breakfast with my daughter-in-law’s family. In the afternoon we went to play […]
Daughter-in-Law’s birthday
Today is my daughter-in-law’s birthday. It was such a blessing to get to spend it with her. He mom and niece came over for a bit bearing beautiful multi-colored flowers. She dressed the baby in a shirt that said, “Mommy’s Little Girl”. She said her husband – my son – wouldn’t like it because the […]
Meeting the Granddaughter
I finally made it safe and sound to my son’s house to see my new granddaughter. There was no problem traveling and the weather was good all the way. When I got to their house, there were hugs and tears all around. First my son, then the baby, my daughter-in-law, the baby, the grandsons, the […]
She’s Here!
We have been anxiously awaiting the delivery of my new grand daughter. My daughter-in-law was overdue by only a couple of days, but it was decided to induce her. Things went fairly slow for quite a few hours as I received updates every now and again. It is hard being so far away. I prayed […]
Swim Down
My daughter-in-law is very, very ready to give birth to the little one she has been carrying. I talked to her tonight as she told me how she is doing. It seems like it has been a long waiting process and a lot has happened in a few short months. We are all ready to […]
Caring Dads
It seemed like dad’s day to me today. When I was out running errands, I saw a man carrying a baby in one of those front carrier devices. I thought it was the cutest thing. As I was checking out, a family came by on their way out of the store. Mom was pushing the […]
New Little Clothes
My daughter-in-law is going through a very difficult pregnancy. She did so with the 2 boys, but this time it seems to have ramped up a bit. Perhaps it is because she is carrying a little girl. She is now diabetic so has had to change her diet and prick her fingers several times a day […]
And It’s A . . .
I was so excited for the BIG REVEAL today! My parents and I connected via video chat to my grandson’s tablet. The connection was not very good and kept freezing, but it was fun to see everyone there. Then came the big moment. My daughter-in-law’s sister was the only one who knew the gender of […]
A Growing Life
My daughter in law went to the doctor today and had an ultrasound to see if they could determine the gender of the new little person growing in her womb. She sent me some pictures – which did not include the important parts. It is amazing to see the details of the baby – leg, […]
Contemplating Eternal Life
This morning my mom read our daily meditation for Lent. It referred to the scripture John 5:17-30 in which Jesus talks about the dead being resurrected. He says specifically, “… the hour is coming in which all who are in the tombs will hear his voice and will come out, those who have done good deeds to the resurrection […]
