Seventeen and a half years ago, when this sweet girl was born, I thought my heart would burst with love! Having had boys, I really never expected a girl....and what a girl! She is everything a grandmother would desire! She's beautiful outside and more importantly inside!
Ashley has been such a light in our lives and we are so thankful to be a part of hers! My constant prayer is that she use her multiple talents to the glory of God!
Four year later, here comes Adam! The happiest, sweetest baby you would ever want to meet! He was born smiling and laughing! He does have a little bit of a temper, but he's learned how to control it over the years! I'm sure God has something special in mind for Adam!
He has an incredible insight into people and situations and can fix anything!
He's helpful at home and I love him to the moon and back! He loves anything reptile!
I am fortunate enough to have many bonus children and grandchildren in my life! This is Angelina, the half sister of Ashley and Adam. Can't you just look at her and see how she could be a bit mischievous?
Before she was born, Ashley asked me in one of our rare "just the two of us" moments if I would be her baby sister's Nana too. I answered of course! Ashley's answer melted my heart....... Nana, I knew you would say that! She has a Nana, so she calls me Nana Nancy.
Another bonus is Zoe, their step sister. She's a sweet and precocious little girl!
Frank, the son we sponsor in Uganda
AND...............HERE IS OUR NEWEST BLESSING!!!
We're getting a new grandchild! We're so excited! Tommy and Claudia are having a baby! This sweet child is due right in between Ashley and Adam's birthdays! Maybe we'll have a double birthday.
Can you see that perfect baby God is knitting together in her womb? The baby He knew before the foundation of the world?
It's been a while since we have had a baby grandchild and we are getting our rocking arms in shape!

When Ashley was born, I was sure I could never love another child like I love her. Then Adam was born.....and I knew that God provides all the love we need! Each one that comes along I love as much as the one that came before!
Life has thrown it's share of curves, God has allowed us joys and sorrows, but the blessings far, far outweigh the sorrows.
Welcome our new little love! We can't wait to meet you!

Yay! Another baby! I wonder if Russell (what's he gonna be called?) will turn into a bowl of mush?!
I just love to see ultrasound pictures, it really puts into perspective what a miracle a baby is.
I'm voting for him to be called papa (paw paw) like his dad was, but he says he doesn't care what she calls him.
You are already calling the new baby she??
Thanks for stopping at my blog.
Congratulations on a new grand baby! What exciting news!
Hello... thanks for stopping by...Walk A Mile! A new grand baby...how exciting! I am waiting for that next stage!
Thank you for stopping at my blog. I always enjoy meeting new people.
I have put you on my feed so I will be sure to come back again.
Ida really played havoc with the east coast. The only problem for my son and his family was they were without power and may still be. Many other people had to deal with flooding and that was no picnic for sure.
Congratulations on the new grandbaby coming. You are blessed indeed!
Blessings,
Cheryl
Congrats!!! Babies truly are blessings from above!!!
What a beautiful post! How blessed you are! And, how wonderful to be expecting another one! Funny thing bout love...the more people you have to love the more love you have to share!
Congratulations Nancy on the babies you have and the babies to come. You are truly blessed.
My husband and I were talking about being grandparents one day. He said "How weird is it that I love them already?"
God truly does put love in our heart and as much as we need.
Grandchildren are such a blessing. Congratulations.
Congratulations!:)
YAY for another grand - will this one be closer??
You MOST certainly ARE blessed! What a beautiful family! and congrats on the new babe! God is SO good!
We have 2 children that we sponsor also from Uganda--I thought it was awesome that you included him--such a thoughtful thing... It makes me think about how I think about "my kids" I should include them. Simple but profound.
Thankful to have found your little corner of the world. Thanks for opening my eyes a little wider :))
God bless!
