Welcome, Little One

Margaret Alene
 

This is the new baby girl we welcomed to our family on March 14!



 
This is the big sister who asks to hold her, and with a tender smile says "I love baby Margaret."  (Though she does wonder when the baby will learn to talk.)
 
 
 
 
This is the little brother-- now a big brother, too-- who offers his blankets and toys to comfort the small one.



This is the first daffodil in our yard to bloom-- choosing to open on the day of baby M's birth.



This is the baby, one week old.  Baby of a perpetually befuddled and searching expression-- what is this place she now finds herself?



This is the family, now five.
"We're her favorite giants!" says brother T.  "She loves us the best."
