Wonderful News

Abby called tonight at 6:30 pm saying she and Justin were coming out because she missed us. Was I surprised when after we gathered around the dining room table she told us we were going to be grandparents again.

Justin had a glow on his face and I could see how happy he was. I became tearful and said I just wish Mike (Justin's dad) could have been alive to know this. Justin told me that his dad was the first to know. Then we all became excited and talked about the coming event.

Abby showed me the picture she had on her phone that showed the two dipsticks with plus signs. I really laughed at that. Justin said she had wanted to bring the dipsticks out to show us and he suggested they not do that since there had been pee on them. We got to laughing and it was really a fun time.

Abby had received a call from Heather while they were driving to our house. She asked Abby if she wanted to take three great forms of birth control with her for a little while. I bet it was hard for her not to tell Heather it was too late over the phone!

The kids didn't stay long because Abby wanted to stop by Steve's, Josh's, and then Heathers to tell them in person their wonderful news. This will make eight grandchildren for Steve and I. What a day! Halfmoon

I can't believe I was the LAST ONE TO KNOW! That's just wrong!

But Congrats to Abby and Justin!
