Girls, Girls, Girls!

I can't begin to describe the feeling of joy and elation when I learned my 8th grandchild will be a girl. Of course, I love all three of my handsome boys. This excitement has to do with timing. The new little girl Oster has a sister just two years older and a cousin a year older. I can see the three girls growing up and having so much fun together.

Like my daughters, I love the sister dynamics. It's always thrilled me that my two daughters are so close and always have been. My own sister, Donna, means the world to me so I understand this bond between sisters. That Baylee will share it with her sister, just as her Mom and Aunt Angela have shared so much, and Donna and I are blessed, is the real reason I am happy that we're having a girl. As Memaw, I will gladly embrace each child that comes along. What makes it even more exciting is another generation of sisters will discover the joy of having each other. We're counting the days until we can hold little sister in our arms.
