My husband and I are proud to announce
that we are now new parents again!
  Thanks to all of the Prayers from friends and
family.  God took away one of our children
and we are blessed that he has given us
another one to love and cheerish. 
It seems somehow our prayers were answered.
  You see God took a child in April of 1999
and we are expecting this child in April 2000.

  How Great is God's Love!! 
I can't think him enough for
this great miracle he has given us.

Baby Riley was born on April 5, 2000!
He weighed in at 7 lb. 1 oz.
He is in perfect Health and doing well!

Baby Dearest
By Mary Smith

As I glaze into
This little ones eyes
I can see the treasure
That was hidden inside.

Oh what a marvel to me
That mere words can't explain
That with this newborn child
My heart will remain.

This newborn babe
That now lays in my arms
Draws me forever
With unending charms

I can now see
What we made from the start
Oh precious one
You have stolen our hearts.

I was Adopted Jan 2, 2000 to look over the new baby.

Happy 1st Easter Baby Riley!
