Birth of my Grand Son Riley!

Well today was a remarkable day as my Grand son Riley Alexander was born! We got that call at a little after 6am. It is also my Grand Mother Katherine's birthday as well today, but she passed in 1992. Many blessings and sorrows this month. My mothers birthday and passing day, my sons birthday, my grand sons birthday, my Grand mom Liz's passing day, my Grand mother Katherine's birthday, Bella's birthday. I think that is it?

I felt like my mother was watching us today. There was such joy when he was born. He is so cute! He really is! I didn't want to leave the hospital, but one does what one has to do.

Tomorrow is going to be a big day and a very long and draining day. Here is hoping I have the strength I will need for tomorrow. I will hit the hay early and see how it goes.



Baby Riley! 7lb13oz 21+ inches long.

Blessed Night one and all!

  1. Congratulations to you and your family, Bunky! I can only imagine the joy you feel being a Grandfather. I remember the first time I held my nieces and nephew and it still brings tears of joy to my eyes. Prayers for the loss of your Mom too. It seems that the same thing has happened repeatedly in my own family--one leaves, another comes.
