Do you know the kind of love that makes your chin quiver? The kind of love that makes your heart swell like the Grinch on Christmas Eve???? THAT, my sweet friends, is the love that I feel for this precious little girl ....... we all feel this love for our new baby Clara ~
And you were all right dear friends. About this grandmother gig........my heart is full, and I'm so very proud of my son Brent and sweet Emily. They are feeling the same exact feelings that I felt 26 years ago when my first precious son was born (Brent). The surreal feeling that you're in a dream and can't believe that it's you....having a child and falling so deeply in love in just a few short hours.
These are the precious moments that make life worth the living ~
Noah is in love too! And an uncle at eleven years old.....
I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.
Psalms 139:14
Thank you my sweet friends for each and every comment you've left here......I'm am always astounded at the love that is shown here in this land of blog......and you wonder why I love blogging??? It is because of YOU dear friends!!!!
Have a wonderful Wednesday ~
xxoo, Dawn

She is ever so precious and there is no other child in the whole world like her nor will there ever be. There is only one Clara, and you have so many memories to create!! Life really is such a miraculous and amazing gift don't you think?? :)

She still has that fresh new baby skins on her little face, honey. How precious they all are. I can't imagine doing what some women do today. It saddens my heart greatly! But this little sweet spirit is loved and blessed!

What a little sweetie! Congrats grandma, and to the mum and dad.
What a precious gift...May God bless your sweet new baby!
Hi Dawn,
Congratulations on your precious granddaughter. As a mom of 9, new life never ceases to amaze me. There's nothing like the smell, sound, and softness of a new baby. And yes, I fell in love over and over and over again each time, and if I had to do it all over again, I'd do it in a heartbeat. Enjoy your blessing!

Hi Grandmaw!
I've sent you a little gift via email, Dawn, which I hope you like!
....also...Psssst! Just letting you know that I have an Exclusive Freebie on my blog Juno's Place in celebration of 5,000 Visitors, which is only available for those who leave a comment. (And an email address!)
It is a 2-part Template which when combined makes a template for a 12x12 Petal Envelope. I think it is the kind of thing that you will like, Dawn, and I would be delighted to share it with you in return for all the lovely images you share with all of us! :)
BTW, LOVE that scripture that you used today - perfect with the gorgeous photos.
Those toes!!
Warm Wishes

Blessings to you all.

Dawn, she is just so beautiful...the picture of new uncle Noah is adorable...i developed a few tears in my eyes looking at that one...thanks for sharing more pictures of your little angel, i was hoping you would:)
Oh, your pictures made me cry again. Noah loving Clara--how sweet. My oldest was 11 when I had our youngest. He was a cool dude but melted when he held her. Noah is melting all over Clara with his love and that's beyond wonderful. She's so sweet and looks so smart already.
Sally
What a wonderful time for you, Dawn. Clara is so beautiful and precious. Enjoy.
So precious is your little one. You certainly described it well.
Enjoy those sweet little toes. So cute
Hugs
Becky
What a BEAUTY little Clara is!
I can feel your "Grandma love" pouring through the computer. I pray I will be able to be where you are now in not so many years down the road. :)
God bless you and your new extended family!
Awww, she is melting my heart at her sweetness! I adore the pose of her little hands near her face and the tiny round "o" of her tiny rosebud mouth.
You can't explain to someone who does not have a grandchild the feeling but oh do they find out when they have one! Dawn she is so precious. Enjoy your little blessing today!
You are so correct. No words can describe it until you actually experience it! And she is so precious. Love the picture of Noah and Clara! Such joy one little soul can bring to so many!
Dawn,
Congratulations to all of you! She is beautiful and I love her facial expressions. Enjoy her!!
Dawn I still can't get over how alert she is! She looks like a 3 month old. What a cutie! You are so blessed.

Oh Dawn , each moment will grow sweeter !! our grandchildren are so precious -- I saw this quote somewhere and made several things for friends with it -- It is cherished -- Children are messages we send to a time we will never know -- So as a Christian Mother and Grandmother -I love instilling love and caring that they will remember when they have their own grandchildren -Kathy - ga
What great pics!!
Her little personality is just oozing out already.
She is so alert. =0)
Blessings. What a special time.
Barbara Jean
I believe in that first picture, she's already wanting to smile!! She is a darling and I know all of you are so proud.
Blessings abound with your precious grandaughter. Enjoy your new role. One of lifes best miracles.
Hi Dawn ~ what a sweet little baby girl. She is adorable...and those little feet...oh how I want to play with them!
Congrats to the whole family!
Hugz,
Michele
Congratulations! Soak up the sweetness!
She is beautiful! Being a Grandma is the best!
Beautiful beautiful pictures of a precious gift indeed.
I must say--awesome pictures!!! I especially love the foot, so completely adorable! Try converting all of these pictures to black & white or sepia and they will make the most precious and timeless pictures...to use in your own personal artwork perhaps?!? You can view my blog, first post for ideas!! I wish Emily a quick and speedy recovery, and that all of you are getting a tiny bit of rest in between all of your cuddling! :0)
Ah such sweet photos, I love little baby feet. Congratulations!
You are so blessed! What an incredible gift you have there...not to mention how absolutely perfect she is..such a gorgeous baby. My congrats go out to you and yours and thoughts of all of the wonderful grandparent things you get to do now!
Congratulations Granny! I think she looks like you!
Dawn~ Clara is just adorable! Such an alert baby. I think she is the image of you! Beautiful photos!
She's adorable, congratulations! What a wonderful adventure you have all begun!
Laurie S.
She is just so precious! I will never know the feeling, as my son and daughter-in-law cannot have children. I'm sure I would be in heaven with a baby to hold and spoil. I am so happy for you, Dawn!
Oh my goodness Dawn ~ I just got home from visiting family so I didn't know Clara was born ~ she is a beautiful doll baby ~
Ohhhh precious !!
xoxo

God's blessings in human form....His gift to your family is so very precious. Blessings and congratulations to all!
Your pics of Clara are so sweet! I have a picture I'm going to send you, I just have to find it. It's a tiny card from my motherinlaw when my 1st child was born!
She is so pretty, I know just how you are feeling. It kinda like a out of body thing. I love all the picture, wonderful, wonderful most excellent! I like the second one really well, she looks like she is singing. My Mother would call it the baby bird look...whatever it is she is only starting her adventure in making you smile, laugh, cry and worry. She is Clara, in all our hearts tonight.
Dawn!!! Congratulations to all of you! Baby Clara is so beautiful and precious. I know that you must be in complete heaven having her in your arms. I am so happy for you sweet friend. Love, Jamie
Clara is a beautiful baby--so precious and sweet! Congratulations, Dawn, to you and your family, and especially to your son and daughter-in-law!
Congratulations! The 2nd photo has to be my favorite! She is so cute! I know you must feel very blessed.
She is so beautiful! Will you look at those cute toes. She seems so alert and ready to play. How very lucky you all are. Thank you for sharing these precious moments of baby Clara's life. Sharon
Oh Dawn, what a precious gift Clara is. She is a VERY beautiful little baby!! So vibrant and alert!!! I can almost smell her sweet baby smell from here! Congratulations to you and to your son and DIL.
Thanks for sharing you wonderful news.
Big Hugs,

Congratulations to the mama and daddy and the rest of the family! Little Clara is beautiful!!!
Truly a gift from God,
Tracey
These pictures are wonderful! She's so cute.
Shannon
Isn't it SO true? You can't possibly explain the "grandmother love" thing to anyone, you have to experience it for yourself. She is Gorgeous. And a lucky little princess to have you. What is your grandma name? Mine is Mimi.
Hugs,
Sheila
Awww, what a little doll and these pictures are too cute!! Take tons of pictures. As you know, they change so fast! I wish I had taken more of Lois during her first month. Learned my lesson and have a bazillion now.
She really is adorable!! What a wonderful addition to your family!! Congratulations Grandma!!! :)
Oh my gosh, she is just the sweetest little thing ever! Congratulations to you all. What a blessing:-)
