Ecstatic

Ecstasy: A state or feeling of overpowering joy
Ecstatic: Being in a state of ecstasy

That's me...

Because of...
19 weeks and beautiful....
This is my sweet daughter-in-law, Emily...carrying her first son, my baby boy's first son, my first grandson...

To say I'm ecstatic, is putting it mildly....

Wooohooo, I can't wait to pass on all the important lessons and knowledge that Uncle John passed on to me. We'll just have to make sure mama Ems isn't around for the instructional periods....
UJ, I might need a refresher on a few things next time I see you. I would hate for the young one not to get the quality training that Gabe and I did.
Grute, Ems, Love you guys and we'll see you soon.

Thanks Josh.

Pending fatherhood has given me the time to reflect on the important life lessons handed down from UJ including the wet willie, straws in the nose and pull my finger just to name a few! Add to that gettig the tractor stuck in the creek and shooting the rain gauge at the farm and you get a well rounded young man, no pun intended!

Gabe and Emily,
Don't worry I will do a much better job this time then I did with Gabe, Josh and LIndsey. I feel I will be much more effective this time around! I am thankful that Gabe and Josh have not forgot the key things in life! Emily, you look beautiful and we are very excited for you guys!

Love,

UJ

Thanks UJ, Saddie, Josh, and my fabulous mother-in-law, Judy! We are very excited and a bit nervous. So, whatever wisdom you can all impart on us, we will gladly soak it in. Can't wait to see everyone at Christmas!
Love you all!

Judy, Ron, and family,
As the 'other' grandmother involved in this blessed event, I want to congratulate you all on the impending birth of our grandson! I am so grateful that Emily has married into such a wonderful family that loves her so much. I love you, and am so proud of you, too, Gabe!
God Bless you all and have a very Merry Christmas!
Love,
Diane Andre
