I won't see her until this coming Saturday night when Terry and I are driving to North Carolina, and then I will be staying there for a few days to get to know her and help Shari and then flying back on Wednesday. Her birth seems surreal because we can't see her yet. Hopefully Mark will send some pictures by email this afternoon. What a happy day!

A GRANDDAUGHTER!
Today is special because it is the day our new granddaughter is born! We haven't seen her yet, but have heard all about her. Her name is Esme (with an accent over the e) Arabella. She was born in North Carolina at 11:45 a.m. on this beautiful Sunday morning, August 17, 2008. She is tiny - only 5 lbs. 11 oz. and 18" long. Shari says that she has about 1/4 to 1/2" of hair on her head and Mark says that she looks like Shari.

I'm thrilled for you, Ruthanne! A granddaughter is such a lovely gift, and it's so nice that you now have both an adorable and extra-special grandson, as well as this tiny granddaughter to love! I can't wait to see pictures! I'll keep praying for Shari and Mark in these next weeks as they bond with this little miracle ...
