I'm A Great Aunt!!!
Welcome sweet baby Emery Ann!! I love you so much!
Twenty-three years ago, my oldest sister, Lori, made me an aunt for the first time when she gave birth to her daughter, Jessica. I had just graduated high school and was at Lori's house more than my own. When Jessica was born, I got the first little idea of what it would feel like to have my own baby. She was so precious to me...more than I ever thought a baby could be.
Our baby Jessica is now a mother....Emery's mother. My first niece made me a great aunt yesterday. Just as Jessica gave me a glimpse of what it would be like to be a mom, Emery has given me a glimpse of what it will feel like when my children start having babies of their own. I thank God for every year that he gives me to live and experience days like yesterday. These are the moments that we live for....that make life worth living.

That's beautiful and I feel the same way :-). I wouldn't give anything for having been there all together yesterday. It was the first time the three of us got to wait outside together to welcome a new baby.
Awwww...that is so sweet and so true. We have come full circle!! We have many more times to wait outside of those doors! We are so blessed.
So sweet. Congratulations.
How beautiful! Congrats!!
