Today was a special day for my Noah. He was awarded the game ball by his coach after his game. Look at his sweet face beaming. Although it was super- difficult for me to make it to & through his game with a brand new baby sister...I'm glad I did. And Noah, Mommy is always proud if you... Not because of WHAT you do...but because of WHO you are. Love you.

Daddy, Paw Paw, Noah, & Annemarie with the game winning ball.

Annemarie @ 6 days

My precious baby girl us now 6 days old. I watch her in awe. We are so bonded...mother & daughter. I can't help but remember that it was this day 17 years ago that I lost my mother to cancer. Oh how I wish she could hold her youngest granddaughter in her arms...feel her soft touch, smell her sweet baby smell. But so much of Annemarie IS my mother...not just her name. But her spirit, her resilience, & her strength. We love you, Mom. 💗

Boys & their baby girl

Noah & Jackson are adjusting well to having Annemarie in our home. They call her their, "Darlin'," and love her already. We all do!
