Quite an eventful week.

We had a wonderful experience this week, my brother in law Chris Harrison and his wife Ashley welcomed a new baby on Friday. Taylor Elizabeth Harrison was born October 19th at 2:03 pm. She was 6 pounds 11 ounces and about 18 inches long. Suzy and I are very happy and as this is the first grandchild in the Harrison family there was a lot of excitement at their house. I have a fair amount of experience in this area, having two nephews and another niece in my own family. I will never get over how happy they all make me, the pure and unconditional love experienced always renews my inner feeling of hope. I am once again looking forward to a lifetime of teaching and learning and watching their new world unfold. I am reminded of how happy it makes me and I imagine how wonderful welcoming our own children will one day be. With the holidays right around the corner I am sure this fall will be a lot of fun for all of us. I can't wait. Hopefully I will get to spend time with my brother Frank and his family too, we have not had holidays together in a long time so I think that would be nice.
