Last Saturday my husband and I officially became grandparents! Our four kids who still live at home traveled with us to Oxford, Mississippi, to meet their new nephew, a precious baby boy named Maddux (after the great Braves’ picture—our son is quite the fan).
I snapped these tulips on an early-spring day on the Oxford square, with the Lafayette County Courthouse hovering in the background.
We got home Wednesday night and I promptly injured my hand on Thursday and ended up in the ER. I saw a hand doctor Friday and I’m sporting a splint; of course it’s my right hand.
It’s a minor miracle that no bones are broken.
Believe it or not, a go cart landed on my hand. It’s a crazy dramatic story that I will tell when I can type with two hands or figure out voice dictation on my computer.
Suffice it to say, it took one million hours to make this month’s desktop calendar. I hope you like it!
Congratulations on the first grandchild! That is exciting news!
Still waiting for that day myself. Our oldest daughter married last June. I asked her last month, “Ok, what’s the family plan?” I waited since last June to ask! I was glad to hear there is a plan, although we know it is in God’s hands.
I usually stop by and don’t comment, but a grandchild, that’s so special I couldn’t resist. What a blessing from heaven,
Kathy
Thank you, Kathy! Two of our sons married in spring of 2015 and this is the first grandchild. Our other son lives here in town, so I’m looking forward to him and his wife having a baby too. Seeing your child with a child of their own is an amazing thing. 🙂
