Cranberry

There's a new cranberry about to explode into our lives. Actually, the date is more like
Aug 27th, 2011. Josephine Frances Boeshaar Reedy and our son(in-law) is pregnant. Until we know it's gender, this gift will be called "Cranberry." Josephine called us with the news on
Christmas Eve. She and Richard were trying to keep it quiet until she went to the dr on
Dec. 29th. For now, everything looks good. There will be an ultrasound on Jan 12th
to confirm the due date.

Until Jo begins showing, I don't think it will mean a lot to Travers. For now, it's all kind of abstract. After all, August is a long way away. Travers loves babies and I think he'll be a good, doting uncle. If he treats this baby half as nice as he treats Miss Tess (his dog), the baby will be a spoiled rotten brat.

Please, pray for my daughter and son-in-law. I'm learning one of the greatest gifts I can give this child is my prayers for the future. God and His wonderful love can do more for this child than anything this world can offer.
