144 years ago today, I gave birth to my youngest child, a beautiful baby boy named Nigel. What? Wait ... 144 years ago? Ha! Yes, in dog years. In normal years, it was 21 years ago today.

This is cool ... Grandma J. is holding her great-grandson for the very first time. I am so happy that I found this picture. Grandma died in 2003.

We have the same eyes. So does Kari.
They never seem to stay open during picture taking.
We all love you, Nigel. Have a wonderful birthday
son, and enjoy yourself!
Love, Mom and Cary
