Introducing Our Newest Granddaughter!

  I am so delighted to introduce you to my newest granddaughter, Miss Paisley Ann!

I didn't make it to Colorado quite quick enough to be here for her birth, but it's okay, she is very happy to see me, and I am so happy to be here with her!

 Is there anything any cuter than baby tiny little feet?  (This photo is especially for my Mom, who always checks out the tiny toes right away!) 

Big brother, Porter,  was just precious waiting and waiting to meet his brand new little sister...  she was out being bathed, and getting a check up when he got to the hospital, so he had to wait so paitently....

 Finally, Here she comes!!  He brought her a soft, chenille bunny from the gift shop, with Aunt Tori's help. 

 A tender, sweet first kiss from a loving big brother.  He is SO good with her.

 Tender moments with Aunt Tori.

 Here I am meeting our sweet girl for the first time.  She is such an easy going baby! 

Porter brought her a flower!  
Mommy and Daddy are doing very well, and things are going smoothly.  She is the most content little thing!  I've hardly heard her make a peep!

I've created a couple of cards this week, but those can wait for the next post.   I hope you are enjoying some happy moments in your life.  Treasure your family and friends.  Tell them that you love them...

Stand for what you believe in, and make a difference in the lives of others.
We have suffered the loss of a long time friend this week.  We have been close to Ken and his family for more than twenty years, and I teach school with him.  He was one of the most respected teachers I have ever met.  He literally touched the lives of thousands of students and their families.  My daughter taught at his school.  He was a Tae Kwon Do Master, as well as a history teacher, father, husband, grandfather, and friend.  For no known reason, he was shot to death in his own doorway this week.  He will be truly missed, and our school will never be the same.

Rest in Peace, Master Ken Ellis.
