Congrats! I knew it wouldn't be long. Its hard to believe all of these little sprouts are actually sprouting! Before you know it Jacob will be announcing he is getting married!! Now how scary is that!!! Monica, you and Mark had better get busy in the baby department before some of these new little sprouts beat you in that department. I know Bobbie just can't wait to be grandma! I, on the other hand, am in no hurry Emily!!! I have plenty of kids that can call me Mamaw or TT. I guess the only ones left to have grandkids are Daniel,Bobbie, Me and Steve! WOW. when you look at it like that it does make me feel old.
Colin called me this evening to "reserve" his room for Friday and he said that Amy and Clara was coming with him. He sounded very excited, although I can see Colin when the baby starts crying for no reason and she won't be quiet, "Amy make her be quiet, its your baby! shes giving me a headache! Amy, I'm going to tell Mom!" Even though you grow up and get married AND have babies it doesn't mean you can't come crying to Mommy every now and again. I know I have cried to my Mommy many times. More since I have gotten married AND had kids than when I didn't. There are many times I remember after having kids that I would call Mommy in the middle of the night and say "are you awake?" duh its 3am! But she always says I am just laying here awake. She was waiting on my phone call, And after I would burden her with my problem, no matter if it was Tanner and the croup, Emily with a fever, or Jacob with a leg cramp or ear ache; she would pray with me on the phone, and whether the kids felt better or not I did. And usually after the phone call they would go to sleep, but I am sure Mommy didn't. She probably prayed right on. So you kids getting married and having babies, don't forget you got Moms out there praying for you. And if your Mom isn't available, you can always call one of your aunts or your grandma, we know how to pray too. And believe me, Grandma has forgotten some things, like how to turn on the oven or how to follow a recipe. Or even a name or two, but be assured she hasn't forgotten how to pray!!
