Me, My Baby and HER Baby...

**We placed THIRD in the photo contest! I am so proud! Thanks so much to everyone who voted :) Not sure if we actually won anything, but it sure was fun!**

Our local newspaper is having a 'Mommy and Me' photo contest and I thought it would be fun to enter. I LOVE this photo, which was taken just hours after I helped deliver my youngest Granddaughter, Sadie Frances, on January 8th, 2009. The mid-wife had not yet shown up and the nurse left my daughter Katie and I... alone in the birthing room. Sadie was not waiting!

The prizes are really neat and I would love to present one of them to my 'baby'~as she can not afford to have professional photo's taken of her and her little girls. Wanna help me out?!
Just CLICK above! THANKS SO MUCH IN ADVANCE!

Kayleigh's Dancing With Jesus~

Precious little one~little Kayleigh Freeman is now dancing on streets of gold, in the arms of Jesus. Though I have only been following her blog for a few months, my heart is broken, my soul aches for her precious family. Please pray for them....Please visit their blog.

Here's something else people can do to honor sweet Kayleigh. Her Daddy posted this just this evening and what a beautiful tribute:

"Many of you asked if there were something you could do to help and I came up with an idea. At 4:00PM(EST), we will be letting off pink balloons in Kayleigh's name. Tied to each balloon will be a card that reads: " Adam Freeman

New Blog Beginnings...

I am Cindy, aka 'Grandma~rella.' That's me, over there <~ in the purple dress, which my oldest Granddaughter Josie Mia proudly calls the 'Grandma~rella dress.' The handsome fella is my only Son, Timothy, proudly holding his beautiful bride, Jenn. Behind Jenn is my oldest Daughter, Jaime, next to her is my 'baby' Daughter, Katie. The woman in blue is my Mother, Betty. This photo was taken on May 28, 2006, in Spokane, WA. The day was beautiful, the people, precious. It is now May 9, 2009. I've always wanted to blog and have found myself here countless times over the years just sitting and wondering where to begin. So today, I begin~well, sorta. I've been sorta blogging via an old blog which I started a few years back, which has since been transferred to a good friend, who is more able to update our county's soldiers. After blogging on that account for a couple months, I realized it was not appropriate to use the same URL for my own personal blog. So, I will attempt to transfer my personal entries over here. :)

My hope is to share love and laughter, ups and downs, smiles and frowns, witnessed miracles and most of all~strengthen my personal relationship with Jesus. :) Reading various blogs here on Blogger, it's truly amazing how so many people have already 'muscled-me-up' just by sharing your hearts and your words. THANK YOU!

So, off I go to transfer those entries~thinking I may just need some luck! LOL! (((HUGS)))
