Greetings From New Orleans--Meet Ben

Life has been hectic the last six or seven weeks. We went to NO on the last post to help our kiddos get ready for Ben's arrival. When we got back home, my 5-week class began and I worked by day and lived in front of the computer by night. If Collin didn't cook it or wash it, we didn't eat it or wear it. My sweetie is wonderful. I was trying to get ahead and finish my class work just in case Ben decided to come early. Guess what? He did. Last Saturday, March 17, at 11:32 a.m. weighing in at 7 lbs. 3 ozs. and 19 1/2 inches long. Meet our new little addition.

Collin and I kicked it into high gear last Saturday when we got the call at 8:00 a.m. We packed and left home by 9:15. It was fast. We figured if we didn't pack it, there was a Wal-Mart in NO. Collin left yesterday to go back home and I'm here another week helping out. Collin and Bryan will come back next weekend to see Ben and get me.

He is a precious boy. He has stolen our hearts. Our lives were changed forever 28 years ago and 23 years ago. And now, our lives are touched forever, once again.
