bonnie schmid
a few nights ago,
the boys and i grabbed take-out chinese
and headed over to see new parents bonnie and marty,
and {insert drumroll}
lillian michelle schmid
this baby girl was born while we were in palm desert
and the birth went so fast and so well,
bonnie was home in a day a half.
{when we visited, she answered the door with a skip in her step}
lillian is so little and oh so so lovely.
we all took turns holding her and cooing over her.
well, all but scoutie.
he preferred to just look at her.
it was such a happy visit.
c and i were always hoping this day would come for our dear friends.
having children is one of those experience that you just
can't know and understand until it happens to you.
as marty said to us with tears in his eyes "now i know".
*sniff*
~ i am taking a vacation day tomorrow (friday} and volunteering
at finn's annual field day at explorer. remember those from your elementary days?
it will be a fun and probably a very long day for the both of us.
i'll work where they need me, and of course cheer on finn and his pink team|
as much as i can. the students are divided up into teams and assigned colors
and for the last 2 years, his team has gotten girly colors - purple and pink. *grin*
