Happy Birthday, Harrison!


My newest nephew, Harrison Robert, was born on Monday at 9:08 AM. Both Mom and the baby are doing well. He is 19.5 inches long and weighed in at 7 lbs. 4 oz. He’s beautiful! I spent his birthday in the hospital with my sister and her husband and family. I got to hold Harrison a couple of times, and he is so precious. There is just something special about holding a newborn baby!

I know that being an Aunt isn’t quite the same thing as being a Mom, but I relish my role and enjoy it with great delight! It never gets old to me, and I wouldn't trade it for the world. This is my 4th nephew. I also have 5 nieces. Each one brings joy to Aunt Mel! They are truly a treasure to me...
