Anywho...I have several taggies done and will be posting them to my etsy site this weekend. That way you can go and pick them out, with the price that we'd previously arranged.

What a wonderful family and what a beautiful baby girl - her eyes just say it all, don't they! I'm so glad your mom and dad could be with you to witness Nina's baptism and celebrate her on a very special day in her life. I will hope upon hope that you all will get East and I can meet Nina before she's all grown up. I send my love to all of you and so appreciate seeing the pictures - the children are growing up so fast - however, I wonder if it feels fast to you. I use to say that the days were long but the years were short and it still seems that way. What a blessing you are to each other.<BR/>Love,<BR/>Nancy BNancy Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15377667771409509023noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8029848082287544878.post-41346951013780003272008-11-05T12:57:00.000-08:002008-11-05T12:57:00.000-08:00This is just so poignant, Liz!

And, yeah, I bet your granddad was there. I totally believe that. Love the photos, too.

It is my way of keeping track of the Lyons when our days zoom by and we don't have time to connect. It makes me smile and keeps me up to date. I was particularly moved by this entry. I am so proud of you, Liz! As a woman and as a mom - you just amaze me! I loved your entry and the photos were beautiful - but mostly I love the way you love your family and the way you all love each other. You have away of reminding me that no matter how crazy things get - that love and connection that only family can provide - THAT is what it is all about. Nina is a gift to you....and you, my dear, are a gift to us all!

It's so nice to celebrate such a wonderful day like this with your parents and friends, too!
