Brooklyn Glo Benedict!

We got to see our Son holding his sweet (only a few minutes old) 'Brooklyn' in the Delivery Room via Skype on Thursday.  We were able to sort of 'be there' to see Travis and Lindsey and their sweet precious adorable gift!  She is beautiful!

While we were serving our last mission in Brasil, we had 5 grandbabies born.  For me, those days are some of the most lovely, yet difficult... being so far away.  Heavenly Father must understand the happy tears that grandparents wipe off their cheeks and chins at times...to allow this great technology to lighten our lives incredibly.  Thank you Travis and Lindsey for being so generous to let us peek into such a moment.

Welcome to Earth-Life Brooklyn!  It's Heavenly having you here!

You will be walking when we first touch your little hands and face...but you must know that while you are learning to smile and giggle and crawl and wave and walk...we will be praying for you every day... and because of you and all of your cousins... and the GREAT JOY you bring to us...we are trying to help other families to have and understand what you already have!  A Momma, Daddy, and big brother, who love you along with a humongous super amazingly wonderful family of aunts, uncles, cousins, and grandparents on every side that you are a part of FOREVER AND EVER AND EVER!                  ...AND EVER!
