Just a favorite photo of MeeMaw's little man...

This is one of the photos taken by the photographer in the Hospital...They did such a nice job !

Gone a long time...Miracle Grandson !!

I sat and wrote this once, late at night when I was very tired, and mistakenly deleted it....It has taken me almost a week to re-write and post ....
So....the story: My oldest daughter has had many problems with miscarriages. Her body just never seemed to be able to keep a pregnancy past 6-8 weeks.
This last time she found out she was pregnant, we just knew prayers were being answered. She saw several specialists, she was so sick with morning sickness, she was on bed rest and while she stayed with me( her and her husband's apartment had a long flight of steps so it was out) I jokingly said
I was " cooking" this baby.
we went grocery shopping and she got pushed around in a wheel chair( I think she liked that part...lol)As the time passed and she made it to 8 weeks then 12 weeks and beyond, it was both exciting and still scary, but we remained hopeful and thankful.
Well, on Sunday May 22nd @ 9:08 am, our miracle Grandson was born.
The photo was snapped just minutes after he was born. We are waiting on the CD of photos taken by the photographer that comes to the hospital, and I'll post more. the pictures turned out amazing ...Can you tell how excited and in love I am with this little man already ?
