Isaac


When you were born I came up to the hospital, and when I held you you worked your way into my heart so fast! Sometimes moms wonder how they can love a second or third baby as much as the first, but it just happens, and it happened even more for this Grandma. That dark head of hair - when your brothers had blond and hardly any hair at all. To me you looked just like your daddy, and that was fine with me Isaac. You have a handsome dad. It was so good to hold, hug, and smell you. That new baby smell is wonderful. God had a special plan for you Isaac - to be born close to the time that 2 of your cousins were born. Now the three of you can be buds. Grandma loves to have all of you here and just watch. Declan walking all around you, Quint sitting watching you crawl and figuring how that works. Tyler and Eli (your big brothers) watching over all of you. What a gift God gave me in all of you. Tyler-11, Eli-8, Declan-1, you, Isaac-10 months, and Quint-10 months. WHAT A MIRACLE FOR THIS GRANDMA!

I hear from your mom that you do not sleep at night. I am with you Isaac. Why eat during the day when you have to share the glory with two big brothers, but at night you have your mom all to yourself? I go with you. Also, your mom deserves it after she did the same thing to Grandma and Grandpa. Your mom kept us up at night a lot, so she is getting back what she did to us. :-)

Isaac, as soon as you are old enough to make Ty and E scared of the dark hide and scare them. Any time you can get your brothers to do something for you - you go boy. Mom was a stinker for Grandma and Grandpa so you be a stinker for them.

Isaac, Grandma is writing this because I have a sickness that means I will not be able to see you grow up all the way. I do not understand it anymore than you do, but I pray God uses it to touch many people. You see Isaac, Grandma believes in Jesus. That means I believe that Jesus died on the cross to forgive Grandma's sins, and He does the same for you. I know your mom and dad teach you about Jesus all the time, and Grandma is so proud of them.

Isaac I will always remember your big smile and all the attention you got from your brothers.
They love you so much. I pray that I will see you many times yet. Let's give it to Jesus (you and Grandma) and let Him decide that. Isaac I love you with all my heart and pray for you ever day.

Love and Prayers Grandma Dawn
