Re: WOW what a unreal past week!

[Guest guest]

Congratulations to Little Henry and his entire family. Many years ago I working in the neonatal intensive care nursery and loved the tiny babies - they are so beautiful and delicate, but they have strength. Enjoy and I hope that you are feeling better.

Condolences to you and your husband for the loss of your mother-in-law.

Take care and sleep as much as you can.

Hello evryone- I wanted to share my past week with all of you. It started with Saturday the 11th. We burried my mother in law ... It is sad that he missed his grandma by one week, but I feel she was there to see him into this world. Sorry this is so long, I feel that I am rambling, I just wanted to share this miracle with everyone. Even though I don't post much, I read almost every entry, and am so thankful for this group. Blessings to you all..... Annie

is fading away. May the joy of Henry's arrival diminish the sorrow of your
