Family

This is an exciting time to be part of our fabulous family. About a month ago baby Cara was born to Adrian, middle son and his wife Rachel. Cara is number four grandchild and she's beautiful. On Saturday oldest son Robert, his wife Julie and Iain and Becca (number two and three grandchildren) arrive from North Dakota for two weeks. Then next Friday youngest son Chris is getting married to Mary up in the Highlands of Scotland. The whole family is going to have a weekend together to celebrate their wedding. Abbey, oldest grandchild will be a bridesmaid and the others have special roles to play. The older ones have jobs to do and wee Cara just needs to be. She'll be providing the cuddles.

I am near beside myself with excitement, in a Yorkshire matter of fact kind of a way.

Isn't it great that families continually change and shift, welcoming new members and celebrating with so much fun and joy?
