They’re Here!!

It all started in the early morning hours of Aug. 29th with a phone call from our daughter Kristine,  “Mom, my water just broke”.  She was due in October, we were having a baby.  A few hours later our first grandchild Brian Knight was born weighing in at just over 5 lbs. but he was healthy and we were thrilled.  He is beautiful, my husband and I were lucky enough to make a mad dash trip down to see him.

We had to leave and head home before he was able to leave the hospital.  Eight days later, on September 8th, we got another phone call in the early morning hours, this time from our second daughter Karlee, “Mom, my water just broke”.  We were having another baby!  Later that morning, we got a phone call from Kristine, “Knight was going home”!  It was turning out to be a fantastic day, my parents were in town visiting and to top it off it was my birthday!  We got the word at noon, William Clayton had arrived weighing 7 lbs 8 oz.  He was born on my birthday, and as a note of interest, I was also born on my grandfathers birthday and I was also the second grandchild. 

What a wonderful last few weeks we have had.  I have had many friends tell me that grandchildren are the best and I have found already that they are right!  I couldn’t be happier.  The boys and my girls are all doing great and John and I have started a new and ‘grand’ period of our lives.  I can’t wait to spoil them.
