New Life

i just spent a major chunk of my evening doing something that probably makes me more fully alive then anything else in the world. i got to hold baby macie who is just over 48 hours old. i not only got to hold her, but i heald her agaist my chest and got to smell her sweet baby scent and feel her sweet baby skin on my face. her skin is so soft it feels like touching air. she's beautiful. there is something about a baby that can reach to the deepest part of my heart.

I found you!!!!
I was just back in PA a few months ago and asked your dad if you had a blog. He gave the address to Mom who promptly lost it. :)
But now I know where you are!!
Thanks for the comment.
Craig is a great guy. He was actually in our wedding. It's so sad how he lost his cousin. Did you know her?
I'm so glad to hear from you and I hope you're doing well. Keep me posted on what's going on in your world. Or maybe I'll just keep reading to find out. :)

oops.
I just read further and discovered that Holly was your cousin too. I'm so sorry.
Are you and Craig from opposite sides of the family?
