Is It A Balloon OR A Ball OR A Belly?


My sister-in-law sent me the picture of her belly. The note on the back of the photo said that my brother had drawn the face on her pregnant belly. I didn't know my brother was such a cool guy.

The little boy in the other picture is Matthew and he made his debut the end on March.
Matthew is the miracle baby of a father who is 65 and a mother who is 54. My brother and sister-in-law had no idea they would be parents at this stage of their lives. When they were told they were pregnant, they were in shock, and then in awe of the blessing. Since they are both in good health and are retired, they have the ability to be full time parents.

There must be a reason that this beautiful boy has been entrusted to my brother and sister-in-law. They are enjoying every minute. Today is my mother's 88th birthday and I know my brother and sister-in-law will be visiting her this week, so she will get to meet her newest grandson. How's that for a unique birthday present?

Hi Joanna,
You can tell we are pretty excited in our family. You are right about the angelic melody.

Ghost Dansing,
Isn't the drawing on the belly great?
