You my Dear Boy are Grandma's pride and joy! I was very lucky and got to be in the room when you were born. It does not get any better than that! I was at your house in Iowa City to take care of the doggies while your Mommy and Daddy went to the Hospital to get you. Mommy worked so very hard and Daddy did too. It was early in October. I was so glad I got to drive to the Hospital that day and got there just in time to help tell your Mommy she COULD do it, because she was so very worn out trying to get you that she was giving up. Your Daddy did everything in his power to help, but there was only so much he could do and he was getting real tired too. They had been working all night to have you. Finally when I told your Mommy she could do it, she got super strength and went back to work. Your Daddy helped her with a strong voice and finally you were born. You looked like you had been in a fight, but the nurses took you out and cleaned you up and when they brought you back in, you looked so good! You were so special and I stayed a few days before I had to come home to see Grandpa Larry again. We were not able to visit you as much as I would have liked until you all moved closer to us. We helped to care for you when you all moved. You and Alvin came home with me and stayed for a couple of days while Mommy and Daddy got things moved in and then we all went back to see your new home in Omaha. Now Mommy is almost done with Law School and soon you will be moving again. It will be a good move because you will get to have a lawn again. I will add more to this later. Love you
Grandma Kate
