Discovering Joys of Grandparenthood

My mom and sister, Brenda, and niece, Katya, visited this past weekend. The introductions to Annika were so much fun and pure joy! What great moments! A four generational photo--My mom, Mary, Lisa, Marilyn and little Annika.

Ohhh...what gorgeous pictures! What a gorgeous occasion - welcoming baby Annika and having Great Gramma Mary with you. Marilyn I can see the little smiling "kringle" of quiet joy in the side of your face as the baby nestles against your cheek - what a warm and delicious feeling. God bless you all.
