Welcome to Esther!

I’m a Mémé! Otherwise known as a grandmother 🙂 My baby girl had a baby girl on Sunday, September 11. Little Esther is absolutely beautiful, of course – she looks a lot like her mother did as an infant.

Both Momma and baby are healthy. I’m fortunate enough to be in Omaha with them for now, and I’m enjoying every minute of my time here. There’s nothing else like the smell of a sweet, clean infant. It’s definitely worth all the sleep loss.

We’re getting lots of good singing and reading time together. I was very happy to be able to find Pamela Ballingham’s Earth Mother Lullabies from Around the World series (volumes I, II, and III) on CD, as I nearly wore out the cassette versions playing them to Katie while carrying her and after she was born. They’re a family tradition now!

One of the first books I bought for her? A is for Activist! She’s also fond of Dream Animals: A Bedtime Journey. We’re going to have to find a new copy of Jennifer’s Rabbit, as Katie’s copy has disappeared, and we’re very fond of the illustrated version of Tom Paxton’s marvelous song.

Cyn is Rick's wife, Katie's Mom, and Esther & Oliver's Mémé. She's also a professional geek, avid reader, fledgling coder, enthusiastic gamer (TTRPGs), occasional singer, and devoted stitcher.

  1. Congratulations on the grand daughter. I thought you might want to know I had quadruple bypass surgery last month. Slowly getting stronger. Agent orange finally got me.
