OUR GRANDDAUGHTER ARRIVED!
















Lillian May Francis
7 lbs 9 oz, 21"
July 9, 2006
San Diego, CA

Isn't she the cutest? (no bias on my part)

She looks like her mother, though we're told she has her daddy's chin.

You know what is cool about this picture (other than the cutest little girl in the world is in it)? It was taken by our son-in-law, Bryan, on his cell phone in San Diego. He sent the picture to our daughter, Leah's, cell phone here in Grand Rapids, MI. She downloaded it to her computer and e-mailed it to us. Now I'm posting it on this blogspot. The wonderful world of the digital age.

We now have 4 grandsons and 1 granddaughter, yet Lillian May will have a little girl cousin soon. Our daughter, Leah, is also due with her first daughter in September.
