He is beautiful. No, you don't understand...B-E-A-U-T-I-F-U-L!!!

I cannot get enough of staring glassy eyed at him and kissing his sweet cheeks and smelling his sweet smell. I'm again...smitten.

In a nutshell...Sarah was a 2 when she arrived at the hospital at 6, broke her water at 8:30, then the epidural, a 4 at 9, an 8 at 11, a 10 at 12, pushed through 4 contractions and...viola, he popped out at once! Just a perfect labor and delivery...well, at least from where I was standing. As baby Gray entered this world, tears were streaming down my cheeks and once again my heart opened wide to welcome him into my life. Thank you Sarah for this beautiful grandson. You did so good!

Thank you precious Lord, for this new joy, this moment that took my breath away and held it suspended until he cried out and I let go and tears fell. You are gracious to give us beautiful gifts...treasures. The circle of life took one more turn today. I am in awe once again.

Here are a few moments I'm sharing with you...

We got us a cuddler!
