Ranger Pear




My mom and step dad have some property out in the country. My mom, Ranger's Nana, came and stayed with us when we brought him home from the hospital. We got her a gift card to Lowe's as a thank you but we were very particular as to how we wanted her to spend it. We wanted her to get some kind of tree and plant in honor of Ranger out on their property so we could watch Ranger and his tree grow. She bought and planted a Bradford Pear a.k.a. "Ranger Pear" in our family. She then decided that all her grandchildren needed trees and picked a tree out for them and painted stones to go in front of their trees. It really is neat and very special. These pictures are of Ranger and his tree...notice he is in a basket. One of the pics is both his biological grandmothers and is very dear to me.

My Week With Nana Lou













Nana Lou came and spent a week with us while Mom recovered from surgery. She was with us for five days and boy did she save the day. She took care me so Mom could get better. She fed me, bathed me, changed my diapers, played with me, just loved me. She is so sweet and it was such a pleasure having her for a visit. I was so glad to be able to spend some time with her and I know my Mom appreciated her coming too. We love you Nana Lou!!!!!!!
