Wonderful Wonderful News!

I received exciting news today when I learned that Jennifer and Esther's fabulous "Seattle Moms Deal Finder" blog was featured on KOMO Channel 4 this past weekend as a great website for local Seattle shoppers. I knew it had wonderful potential! Congratulations, Esther and Jennifer! Keep up the good work! We love you!

Music to my ears....

Congratulations Jo and John!

And yes, of course, congratulations and love to Jenifer and Sean, the new parents of their beautiful baby boy! His name is Tommy and he weighed in at a whopping 9 lbs. 5 oz. Well done, Jen!

However, this blog is about grandparents and so my comments are mainly directed at my dear cousins, Jo and John in jolly ol' England. 

Even though your grandson is only a few days old, I know that you have already experienced the thrills of grandparenting. It's a new kind of feeling, coupled with a love so grand, and so encompassing, it can take your breath away. 

Your baby has had her baby now.

You may have worried about Jenifer as she made her way through the last few hours, but at the same time, the knowledge that soon your family would grow by one more makes the experience so joyful for everyone.

Isn't Tommy simply the best? I know that he is the most beautiful sight you have seen for a long, long time. Enjoy the feeling. Enjoy each other. These next few weeks will be amazing for you all. How lucky little Tommy is to have been born into such a terrific family!

Welcome, Tommy! Your Canadian family is anxious to meet you!

What was the highlight of YOUR weekend?
