Yes I am.


I knew that I would be excited to have a grandbaby. But I wasn't prepared for the enormous emotional outpouring my heart would have. I love this little sweetheart soooo much!!!

I held her for an hour and just looked at her... her little head, and ears, and fingers, and feet, and toes, and knees, and nose, and rosebud mouth... and she is so perfectly perfect in every way.

I wanted to just inhale her. Just..... capture that moment in time and hold it forever. I haven't seen her for a couple days and it feels like forever. I know she is going to look different already! Babies change so fast.

I'm making chicken pillows to take to the new parents tomorrow. They may already have dinner coming in, but chicken pillows heat up easily so I will just let them have them whenever.

I can't wait to see this sweetie again. I wish they didn't live so far away. Now I know how my mom felt.... however, I am lucky in that they are only 20 minutes away.... and my mom was clear across the country!! I should stop whining.

Tomorrow is my hubby's bday. He will be 51. Hopefully he will be HOME with ME in another week. Let's keep fingers crossed. I miss him. I miss the companionship.

I wish I was rich. I want to help so many people out who are having problems.... health problems, car problems, bill problems, trip problems.... I know so many... and I wish I could just hand over thousands of dollars to everybody.

Guess I need to start "attracting" abundance. I totally believe in "The Secret" and the law of attraction. I absolutely believe it and I found references to that exact thing in the scriptures. Thought and action.... Thought and attraction.... powerful things.

Well, time to attract a clean house. :-)

I'm a GRANDMA!!



After much anticipation.... our little angel arrived yesterday. She was due Oct. 20 but they induced her mommy yesterday (Oct. 25) and after 6 hours she came to earth!!

6 pounds 11 oz of sweetness. Oh this baby is so precious. I'm going to LOVE being a grandma.

She still doesn't have a name yet.

Mommy and Daddy were tired but very happy. Mommy had a pretty intense labor. Induced labors are hard. I ought to know... two out of my four were induced.

Anyhow.... I'm ecstatic. I can't wait till my other "daughter" gets to have the same experience. I'm really going to love being surrounded by little babies/kids.

Whether they are adopted, natural, or step grandbabies.... I love em all the same!
