Grandparenting is hard work!!

After 2 difficult births in 3 weeks, I am exhausted.  I have done all the work that I possibly can do to help moms, dads, and babies to adjust to each other. 

I regret that I have no photos but I can say that Elsie Joyce Dalquist is doing very well and her cousin, Timothy Andrew Bornemann, is also adjusting to life outside the womb.

Both moms can use prayers as they both had 2 day labors and 1 ended in a C section and the other needed lots of stitches. 

Grandpa and Grandma Bornemann are adjusting to new demands on our time and Uncle Jacob is staying away as he caught a nasty bug.

We rejoice in new family members and, when I hold them, nothing else matters much!

Happy in my weariness,

Dawn

Thanks, K family. Hopefully I'll have some photos of Timothy soon and then I can share photos of them both. God bless you all!
