"Little Valentine" is a ...

What a year this has been!  You can click here to read the story of my daughter's miscarriage on Easter Sunday.  As difficult as it was (and actually still is at times), a tiny angel awaits our family in Heaven.  Shortly after this, we learned that God was not finished ... yes, another grandbaby on its way!  

I've referred to this little one as Little Valentine (read here) .  But now, 
(on my 100th blog post) 
Granny can make THE gender announcement ...  

Our little granddaughter Lucy will be "big sister" to her ...

Princess-theme all around for Princess Lucy!




~~~~~ little BROTHER ~~~~~



We are excited!!!!  Granddad & I have never had a little boy besides our nephew & church kids running around our house ... so this little one will be very interesting!  

Everything is looking good in Mrs. 'Joe's pregnancy, but please still remember them in your prayers.  She had early contractions with Lucy (not Braxton Hicks, but the real thing) starting at about 5 months, and has started contractions with this little one last month.  His ETA is mid February, so we all are just trusting God to take care of this little baby boy.  


A precious granddaughter and a precious grandson ... 
we are blessed.
