Easter Sunday, April 8


Let the resurrection joy lift us from loneliness and weakness and despair to strength and beauty and happiness.
Floyd W. Tomkins
Easter blessings, everyone! Collin's Mom told her Dad last night before we went to bed that Collin now weighs 6 lbs 4 oz! Nana V mentioned that soon Collin would meet his Mommy's birthweight and it looks like it will be sooner than later.


Today, after Mass, we will bring Collin's parents an Easter dinner. We will have all of our traditional foods and Collin's Mommy will prepare a delicious dessert. Although we will not be celebrating our most Holy day in the way we wish we could; we will give thanks for all of God's blessings and especially our precious and beloved Collin. We know that Collin's parents miss all of their far away family and wish we could all be together today. We will be together in spirit.

We understand how hard it is for all of you to be separated on this holiday. We too are separated from our first baby, Jen, as she had to remain in KC and work.

Such great news today. Before you know it, little Collin will be as big as his daddy!

Sending love and hugs to everyone in AZ!

Easter blessings to the Naylor and Pike families! (And to all of you whom chose to read but not post.)

Happy 1st Easter,
Sweet Beautiful Boy


... and Happy Easter to all of Baby Collin's family near and far.
I am so happy for those that got to spend this Special Holiday with him, if only for a short time.
