LUKE JEFFREY IS HERE!

I am praising God this afternoon for the safe arrival of Luke Jeffrey born at 2:06 AM on Tues morning May 28th.  Melody and baby are both doing wonderfully.  Luke weighed in at 7 pounds and 6 ounces and was 21 inches long.  He is just A D O R A B L E in this humble Grandma's opinion.  I can't begin to express how grateful I am to have been able to witness this miracle.  How good God is.  It was great to get a couple of days in before the baby arrived, and now we will remain until Sunday enjoying every moment we can get.

SOOO SWEET!

CUTE LITTLE FAMILY OF 4!


GRANDMA'S TURN!

    I saw the photos on Facebook but wanted to stop and read your words. How exciting! Life is amazing and God is so good. I know you are still grieving for your precious mother and now here is a new life just born. Amazing! I'm sure this little one is being enveloped in love. And of course, little Sam is so loved too.

    Love,
    Debbie

    Debbie, I can't seem to find the right words to express my joy for you and your daughter's family. I am so happy that you were able to be with them through the birth and stay for a while. God is always so gracious and faithful. Luke is adorable. I am reminded of the verse in scripture that says weeping only last for the night, but joy comes in the morning.
    I was so sadden to hear of your Mom's passing, and was so encouraged by your past two post, God has given you the gift, of teaching us all of how to deal with sorrow and to turn it into joy! you are such an encouragement to me, always.
    Love,
    Sue
