Welcome, Jillian Marie!

Dawnmarie gave birth this morning to her fifth child (our 15th grandchild), Jillian Marie. Welcome to this world, Jillian. It’s a turbulant, crazy place fraught with danger, pitfalls, and pratfalls. There are evil people, wierd people, sleazy people, and delightful people. You have come into a wonderful family who will teach you how to live, even thrive, in this sphere of mortality. More importantly, they’ll teach you about our Savior, Jesus Christ and the Plan of Salvation. I hope and pray that you’ll learn to cherish these principles and engrain them in your life. I’m so excited by what you’ll see and experience as you grow up and old. I can’t imagine what wonderous things will be at your beck and call. I even wonder if this short note on your birth day will be available to you then? I’m so happy you’re here! Welcome, Jillain Marie!
