Subject: I'm a grandma!


Okay, I can't resist!  I am a grandma for the very first time as of last
Thursday. My oldest son and his bride of 15 mos had a little girl, Alexis
Kristina Marasco, 7#8, born September 15 in Orange CA.  Alexis is a champion
nurser and momma has plentiful milk. I am enjoying watching my son and
daughter-in-law blossom into their new roles. Channyn has always loved
babies and has done a lot of baby sitting so she is a natural, but to see my
son Chris, all 6'3 of him, scoop up his little girl and say, "MY baby!" and
kiss her and hug her and hold her and call her princess, well, that's
priceless. I helped momma through the first night because Alexis has a bit
of the normal receding chin and momma's breasts are full and the nipples are
not terribly prominent and she kept slipping and missing, but it never took
more than 60 seconds and they caught on quickly and haven't looked back
since. The other grandma is a first-timer too, so this little one is in for
it. 

All big smiles here,
Lisa
