Three new great granddaughters were born this month and share something in common with their great grandfather, September birthdays. The news of their safe arrives was wonderful and you could tell that it was one of those sunshiny moments of life. Grandpa was smiled from ear to ear, and you could tell that his heart was filled with joy, wonder, and gratitude.
"Mothers in this family are wonderful , and appreciate their willingness to teach good values, and gospel principles to their families." Grandpa says often.
The first news of a birth this month came from his daughter Carol when she called on September 9th to share the exciting news about the birth of her newest granddaughter. She had gone to Felicia’s to help out with the family and had no idea when she arrived that she would be helping with the birth of a baby as well. Carol was asleep in the early morning hours when she was wakened by a couple of her grand children who had heard Felicia calling her. Carol was sleeping on the couch with ear phones on to help her sleep. And boy did they help her sleep great. Once awakened Carol dashed to Felicia side… and a beautiful baby girl was born moments later. More to come on this adventure.
Later he was told by Kamber that Kristine and Michael Ballard had another sweet little girl born Sept. 19, 2008 at 1:49 pm 8 lbs. 4 ozs 19 1/2 inches. She was named Olivia Kaye Ballard and all the kids love her. And Kristine is really lucky to have a great husband who is willing to taking a few weeks leave from work to help our around the house when mother and baby adjust. Michael e-mailed photos to Aunt Suzanne who shared them with a very anxious Great grandpa.
On September 22, at 7:57 pm. another girl was born weighing 6 lbs. 8 oz and was 19 inches long. Lauren and Joseph Brown had a sweet little bundle joy join their family and they named her, Norah Mae Brown. Norah is the 74th great grandchild to join the Lindman family.When Grandpa learned of the news he called to share it with Aunt Suzanne. Knowing that they had a blog, she went to see if information or photo had been posted. Sure enough one photo was there of Norah so she printed it off for Grandpa Lindman.
When he came for Sunday dinner she gave it to him. When he looked at her sweet photo all he could do was laugh with delight as he admired the sweet little face on the paper. I
n celebration of these new births Grand Lindman said, “Congratulations to you all! I pray the lords blessing to be with you. I love you all.”
