Christmas may be in 10 days,
but as far as gifts go…
I’ve already received
THE most
precious
priceless and
priceless and
perfect
gift.
Santa
can scratch me off his list this year.
can scratch me off his list this year.
He doesn’t need to bring me a thang
cuz I got it…
something money can’t buy...
not even all the tea in China.
not even all the tea in China.
Okay a shiny bauble is always acceptable.
Sandwiched between a
Thanksgiving turkey and a Christmas ham…
(Could I be hungry again?)
on December 6, 2019,
(which fittingly happens to be St. Nicholas Day)…
our grand baby girl #2
was born into this world.
was born into this world.
Meet
Presley Parker Hyatt
8 lbs 11 oz 20 in.
The morning we went to to the hospital to meet Presley…
felt just like the Christmas mornings I had as a kid.
The anticipation was palpable.
I can remember back in the golden olden days
going through the Christmas edition of the Sears and Roebuck catalog
flipping endlessly through the pages of toys offered by the duo...
taking a pen and circling the toys I thought I had to have
and hoping like all hope
that when I opened my eyes on Christmas Morning…
I hit the jack pot.
So for St. Nicholas's day
Ansley donned in her very official Big Sister scrubs,

PaulA (aka Hop), Auntie Bri and MeMe
(Uncle Colin and Auntie Alex will meet her soon)
(Uncle Colin and Auntie Alex will meet her soon)
eagerly walked/ran/skipped
to meet the baby sister
to meet the baby sister
Ansley's mama and daddy had been talking about for 9 months…
which is just about a third of Ansley’s life.
Talk about anticipation.
We were about to come face-to-face with the angel
who God delivered safely...
who God delivered safely...
PRIORITY delivery
via her mama and daddy.
Good job
Chelsea and Austin
Anywhoooo…
Presley will soon learn how fortunate she is to have big sister Ansley,
a sweetheart of a 26 month old
who is already so nurturing and loving.
As Presley’s Big sister,
Ansley will always be there for her
to show her the ropes…
show her how to cheers with her cup,
show her how to wrap daddy around her finger,
show her how to make mommy and daddy laugh.
Surrounding precious Presley ...
we were looking into the face of an angel
fresh from heaven sent.
Presley Parker...
a baby sister for Ansley...
girlfriends for life
a baby girl for her momma and daddy to nurture and cherish
and
a grand baby for her MeMe and Hop to love on forever.
Life doesn’t get better than that very moment.
God is great and we are forever grateful.
And so
when I opened my eyes
when I opened my eyes
and met Presley
for the first time….
for the first time….
I knew
Meme hit the jackpot.
