I remember flying out to Laguna Beach
to see my son's new house
We met my daughtet-in-law's mom at the restaurant
we brought our housewarming gifts along
but halfway through lunch...our daughter-in-law
pulled out two wrapped boxes
one for each mom
For You...she said
What? We are supposed to give you the gifts..
open she said
We ( her mom and I) screamed out at the same time
got up from the table and danced in the restaurant
We had been handed sonagrams
of this above pictured girl
Today she is 6 years old
Happy Birthday
my little princess wonder
