What an incredible miracle...to hear Lauren's cry and contented coos...to hear the excitement in your voices...to hear your love and joy bubbling over! Nate, that you are so very proud of Jill makes me want to cry. Jill, that you instantly feel like a family (and a real Mom :} now keeps my heart smiling every time I think of you two. Thank you for giving me such an incredibly beautiful granddaughter... Love, Mom
