Tiffany’s Day

October 15, 2007 (Day 51)

I've had a couple of weeks to obsorb the enormity of what has occurred. I decide to press forward and stay positive, to seek the beauty in every moment. To hang on to every opportunity for giving and accepting joy. As in the joy of my oldest daughter Tiffany and her pregnancy. Today we find out ...is it a boy or a girl? I invite myself to accompany her and my son-in-law Jason to the doctor. Armed with my camera and kleenex. I'm happy, excited and thankful that this is all about her...

What a special moment, special day, special memory.

That is sweet baby Kylee growing in there! I think she is smiling too, but you can’t see her.

I think back 27 years ago when I was pregnant with Tiffany. How I couldn't wait to have her in my world. As a baby, she loved to be held. I carried her around in a backpack as I cleaned, cooked and even went to the bathroom, because she would cry if we weren't touching. Taking a shower was quite a fiasco! As a small child and even into her teenage years, Tiffany was always so soft hearted. She never got a spanking because just knowing she may have disappointed me would send her into a whirlwind of tears. Tiffany has brought me so much joy as my first born daughter. Tiffany, may you find the joy and pride in your new daughter as I have found in you my dear.
