So it's official, I have been honored with perhaps my most prestigious title yet, Grandpa. Thank you, Claire! This sweet little baby took her first breath at 11:28 p.m., November 3, 2008 in Provo. She weighed in at 9 pounds even. Claire and Katie are both doing well. Joe and Lisa are tired. Lindsay and Marshall love their new little niece, and all the rest of us are just plain jealous that we're not there! So many prayers have been answered with a blessing.
I can't help but contemplate what life will hold for children being born at this time. Surely they will witness some incredible things and have so many opportunities to exercise their faith in the Lord. I cling to President Hinckley's counsel to be optimistic. And with a prophet like President Monson we can all take heart that the Church will continue to receive inspired leadership, and our children will be in good hands.

Congratulations, Grandpa! I'm glad you get to see Claire in a couple of weeks. Before you know it, she'll be sitting in church singing "La la la" as loud as she possibly can to embarass her parents and you'll just sit back thinking it's cute because she's your granddaughter. Lucky you. :)
Yay for being a grandpa!!! Can't wait til you're here ad you get to hold her!!
