<p class="MsoNormal">Good Morning All,<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#0d0d0d"><u></u> <u></u></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#0d0d0d"><u></u> <u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#0d0d0d">This weekend was my family baby shower, and I was surprised when my sister presented me with a package from Janet (OH). Then the waterworks - I was absolutely speechless and overcome with gratitude when I opened
the beautiful copy of “In Your Hands” to all of your notes decorating the end pages. Janet is full of magic and how she coordinated this I will never know! Furthermore, a sincere thank you and hugs across all of the miles to each of you for the words of encouragement;
to have the love of so much community across the world – what a priceless gift. To say the least, that book will make special appearances when it can be read together and out of curious baby hands and mouth – lol! I look forward to sharing it over again as
she grows, discussing the powerful message, and letting her know the gift’s thoughtful backstory.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#0d0d0d"><u></u> <u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#0d0d0d">I thought I would pass along a couple of “in progress” photos of Baby’s room. As you can see, her brother is enjoying getting things ready! Also…the bookshelf is a fun new game, rearranging things each day. This
is what happens when both of your parents are librarians!<u></u><u></u></span></p>
