She's here. She's perfect. I am on top of the world.

Oh, what a wonderful gift, this will be the best Christmas yet!! And, on behalf of my mother-in-law, and her four sons and no daughter (and, of course because of my own wish to have a daugther), I'm just a tiny bit jealous ;-)
I can't wait to hear more, but I'm sure everything was very beautiful and I can wait to hear more. Just enjoy her and your family during this special time!

Congratulations from a stranger who has been smitten with your story! All the best to you and your family.
Posted by: Rachel | December 24, 2008 at 02:26 PM
After I read this, as soon as I saw my mom, I blurted out, "CJ had her baby!" And she knew just who I meant. Does that seem weird, since we don't actually "know" you? Ah well. We are both very happy for you.
Blessings on all of you.
