Guess who's coming to dinner????
My sweet friends at work have had a secret project going....me. They've been gathering donations to buy me a plane ticket to come over. I am totally blown away & cannot even believe this. I didn't think I was acting that desperate or sad.
Talk to you soon. Love you, MOM

That is a wonderful Christmas present.
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh!!!!!!! Your life rocks!!! Beautiful winter scenery. The world's most adorable baby. A surprise visit from your mom. What more could you ask for?
ReplyDeleteAwww that makes me tear up a little. You do have a wonderful mother and such a cute little!
ReplyDeleteSo, when is she coming?
ReplyDeleteRandom, but do you have Katy's email address?
Hey Jaz- I am so happy for you AND your mom. What a way to start your day! Also, wanted to tell you I loved your post about Jethro's birth. It brought back many painful memories of Gracie's (and I even got to have an epidural after a while.) Lots of love.
ReplyDeleteYay! I am so happy for you and your mom. It would be hard to look at all of these cute pictures of your first grandchild and not be able to snuggle up with him.
ReplyDeleteJasmine, I am CRYING...what a sweet, indescribable feeling that must be. It's enough for me to wrap my emotions around it all, I can't imagine how you must be feeling. It feels like I'm watching a movie that has finally gone from conflict to a joyful end--knowing how much your mom has been through, you having your first baby, living so far away, thinking about how she must long to be there with you and Jethro, and now this. What a miracle, what overwhelming joy. I'm so happy for you.
ReplyDeleteJasmine, that melts me. What sweet co-workers of your mom's. And how blessed is your little family! And btw, Jethro is just beautiful. His features and skin seem flawless. What a bundle!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for letting us visit last night! All the best! And here's that awesome blog I told you about:

That's wonderful! I am very happy for all of you. Moms are the best!
ReplyDeleteHey Jasmine,
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on the beautiful little guy! How are you liking Germany? How long have you been there, how is your German coming? ( I guess I could read through your blog to find some of those answers!) Missy told me you were in Dresden - we're in Bremen! Elijah is working on a Ph.D. at Jacob's University. It is nice to know there are other crazy people who travel across the world to go to school! It will be fun to compare experiences! If you want to see my blog send me an e-mail.

Jazzy, I am so happy for you and jealous of but happy for your mom too! People are so sweet.
ReplyDeleteDitto to all that was said, and great pictures too. I love your mom (and her co workers)!
