miracles...
She weighed seven pounds, thirteen ounces and was 21 inches long.
She has big bright eyes and lots of dark hair.
Before she was a day old, I swear she smiled at me.
I am her Grandma.
My mother used to say that you should be joyful when someone passes away and cry when a baby is born, because the world is such a difficult place.
I cried many tears that day. Some were because I missed my mother, and wanted so much to share this day with her. Most were tears of joy, because I was so happy to meet this little girl.
Shortly after her birth my son announced that she was named after her Great-Grandma.
Mom would have liked that....
Welcome to the world sweetheart...........

Oh how beautiful! I'm going to be back to read more of your blog.
Well darn it, I got so caught up in your post I forgot to say Michele sent me :o)
Hi.
Thanks for stopping by my place. I hope you return.
I've read through some of your archives and I wanted to thank you for your posts. In the space of a year and several weeks, we lost my wife's grandmother, her father and my father, all between Thanksgiving and Christmas Eve. It was a very difficult time. Of course, it is trite to say things like, "I understand" so I will eschew the platitudes and merely say, "thank you" for sharing these thoughts.
Regards.
Congratulations!!!!!!!! My first grandbaby was born 7 months ago and it just gets better every day!
Michele sent me to say "congratulations!" and that I hope mama and baby are both well.
Congrats! You must be so happy :)
BTW, Michelle says hello!
Michele sent me to say Congratulations :-)
Hoping that baby, mom and grandmom do fine :-)
I am so thrilled for you all. How touching that she's been named for your mom: the circle of life continues.
I dropped in from Michele's tonight to wish you a blessed week.
Oh, what a blessing. I am so glad that I stopped by today. I check in every now and then to see if you have been by and here you are and with such wonderful news.
