    Dream come true!!! I could stare at that pic a long, long time… It must be incredible to feel his little hands on yours… I can’t wait to see a whole family pic someday in the not-too-distant future. 🙂

    Put your hand in mine……..
    Precious. I just wanted to kiss those little hands!!!
    My maternal instincts are kicking in. Shoot, my youngest grandchild is 21. It’s been quite awhile since I held a baby…….even tho, our Sweet P is no baby.
    I love his sturdy strong shoulders.
    Those little hands will strum a guitar, someday……….I bet.

    I could not be more thrilled for the 3 of you.
    Life is good, huh?
