Doctor's Appointment

Well, we just got back from the doctor's appointment for baby Butterbean. All looks well. We got another ultrasound, so we were able to see the butterbean this time, too. Baby is still measuring right on time for an arrival of September 13th. S/he has arms, legs, and distinguishable eyes. S/he was also dancing up a storm. We even got a little wave for our trouble. I have a picture, which I will edit in later once I scan it in. It is not the best. The DR hit capture just when the baby pulled its legs in, so of course, still looks much like a blob:) Heartbeat of over 140 though. That is good too. We return in five weeks.

Angels In Heaven

I have another guardian angel in heaven to watch over me each and every day. My Gladys, my daddy's grandmother passed away on February 1, 2007. She had a wonderful life and leaves behind many family and friends who love her and miss her. I have many special memories of "my Gladys." She came to see me in the hospital the day that I was born. She would hold me when I was little. She let me use her walker to learn to walk and after that, she let me use it just to play. I could climb up in her lap and take the best naps. She shared her yogurt and her jello with me. She liked to watch me dance in Gammy and Pop's den, while she clapped her hands. She liked to hear me call her name. I will miss her very much, but I am glad to know that she is in Heaven looking down on me everyday. I know that she will take good care of me from there. My mommy let me put one of her pretty pink flowers from her many family and friends in my room so I can look at it each day and remember her happily. I know that I am still little, but my mommy and daddy said that they will tell me stories about my Gladys often, so I will remember her. I love you my Gladys and I will miss you every day.

Love,
your Gracie
