a great day...one of the top three ever

today, was a glorious day. it rates way up there on the scale of glorious days. of my top three, there is march 10, the day i married the man i love. there is also feb 13, sweet ellie's birthday.

then, (sigh) there's today...august 7. grayson's birthday.

my sweet nephew was born today at 12:43 pm. he weighed 8 lbs 9 oz and was 21 inches long. big ol' boy. he has a beautiful head of dark hair and he is really sweet and cuddly.

i must put this out there. i was the only aunt/uncle here today to love on this little bundle of joy. i have to enjoy that though because they were all there for ellie's birth while i was going crazy 4.5 hours away.

anyway, they will all be coming in this weekend and will get to have plenty of grayson time. he is a sweet baby and i know they already love him, just like i did.

grayson reed-
i am so happy to be your aunt. you are such a beautiful, little thing and i love you more than life. i know you are going to grow into an amazing, Godly man. but right now, we're going to enjoy you being so wonderful and snuggly. i love you, gray.

I am very fond of the day I became an uncle. (Of course I was an uncle first, then an aunt.) Well, congratulations, Uncle K.
