Two surprise early morning messages thrilled me today. First, our nephew, currently living in London, notified family of the birth of their first daughter. Within an hour, I received a message about our niece, currently living in Montana; they also had their first daughter this morning. These first-time grandmothers are my sister and my husband's sister. Our families grew up together in the same parish and neighborhood. Our two sisters were very good friends and played a part in uniting my husband and I, twenty years ago. Today, their first-born children both gave birth to THEIR own first born children at 1:23am and 1:30am, both on May 4th,; both girls.....one is 7 lbs. 9 oz. and the other is 7 lbs. 13 oz.. Welcome sisters, to the wonderful world of grandparenting!
Congrats to all the new parents and grandparents involved!
(and thanks for finally making me a great-aunt!)

My mom died seven years ago today. This was a favorite song our family shared with her as daughters and sisters. I still tear up in church when we sing it. Miss you, Mom! |

Our own Concert Youth Chorale visited Indianapolis to share a concert with the infamous Indianapolis Children's Choir. The kids really enjoyed performing for one another.
My daughter and son both sing in the Concert Youth Chorale. My daughter also accompanies the choir on flute for a piece in their repertoire.
But it wasn't all work and no play! We stayed at this hotel....FUN for all!

I am up early (4:30AM) paying bills before leaving town and just experienced quite an earthquake moments ago! I was at the kitchen table....the glassware was shaking, the log cabin walls were creaking, the window panes were shuddering, my writing table was moving and my glass of water had waves in it!!! |
