I'm a great grandmother [View all]

At 7:00 am this morning.
Baby boy came in at 8 lbs. 1 oz. with a full head of hair.

I’m sorry for the world we are bequeathing to him. I wish I had better news to give him on his birthday. But nevertheless, he will have a family full of kind and loving and compassionate people who will support him in all ways forever. In this way he will be a very lucky boy, because many children live in an environment of anger and cruelty and grow up not to know any different.

But enough of the Debbie Downer talk. I’m presently on cloud nine and it’s nice to have something wonderful to celebrate.
