I am so excited!

At last I have an official wedding photo of my son Joël and his wife who got married in September 2012. They are going to have a baby as I told you. Yesterday they came round to show me the recent ultrasound photos that have been made and they are going to have a baby girl!! After having four boys, my first grandchild will be a girl and I am so excited. I saw her little face too, her chin, mouth and nose and she already looks like her mum! Her little feet are 3 cm long, how adorable is that and they are perfect! I am so thankful to God!


And yesterday it was David's 24th birthday - here is a picture of him in the car with Joël. He is doing very well at school and is a happy boy.


and I made him some chocolate cakes. He never used to be able to blow out candles but he can now!



Finally, I'm sharing a card I made for Deborah for the January Card Exchange project. The link can be found here. It is according to the sketch requirement.


and my card is pale in comparison with this beauty that I received from Lin Brandberry - it has lit up my Craft room for two weeks already and I am still enjoying it as it carries the message of Spring. Once again, Lin, thanks for this beauty!
 

Isn't Lin's card beautiful!
