Happy birthday to the cute one

 

Hard to believe it was a year ago that we were in the NICU with her, seeing her hooked up to the tubes and wires that were keeping her alive.  She is certainly a fighter.  And about as happy a baby as I’ve known.  

I'm especially glad with the top corner pic of my mom and her playing together.  Right now Mom is in a skilled rehab facility, trying to help her get over her injury from turning too fast over the arm of a chair.  At her age, anything deviating from the norm is a problem.  But prayers are she'll be back with us soonest.  In the meantime, she still enjoys seeing pictures of the little'un when I visit her. 

I'll admit that being a grandparent is everything it’s cracked up to be.  For all the happiness she brings all of us, a blessed and happy year for her and her parents.

    Happy Birthday, li'l critter!
    My Dad's skilled care facility allowed infants to visit. Would be great therapy for Mom.

    1. Once she gets settled in, we might hope to have her swing by - though I will have to check to make sure its OK.

    1. The more kids, the faster the time flies that's for sure.

  3. Happy Birthday to little Peanut! What a lovely picture with your mom as well. I have a picture of my daughter, now 11, when she was a few months old, with my grandmother who passed away about a month later. She was 97. It's a treasure to see the generations touch and carry on as they do!

    1. Yes, blessings from both ends of the timeline. And my mom, despite her limitations, lights up like a bulb when the little'un is around.
