Cash Harrison Williams was born about 7:30 last night. He weighs 7 pounds 4 ounces, 18 inches long and is just perfect.
He was having trouble breathing so he was put on a c-pap oxygen mask. He also had low blood sugar and had to have an IV but after a few hours everything was back to normal.
We got to see him get his first bath, he loved getting his hair washed.
Notice Mark in all the pictures, always a big smile on his face.
It was so fun to watch Mark, he never took his eyes off Cash. We tried to get him to turn around but this was all about his new son!
Clean as whistle and ready for Daddy to hold him.
Finally Mommy gets out of recovery and this little family was reunited. Tiff is doing great, just a little tired.
I couldn't sleep last night. What a glorious, sacred experience to welcome this new little grandson. The word spoiling does come to mind. My life as grandmother is just beginning and holds so many great things to come, lots of secrets to be revealed and the making of some very special memories.
Our children were gifts given to us to cherish and to hold dear. Our grandchildren are icing on the cake, gifts given later in life to be enjoyed and loved. We are always parents, there when called upon and needed, always loving and being there when called to service. It's different with grandchildren, we are on the sidelines looking in, waiting to be invited, waiting to be involved. Lots and lots of love spilling over onto everyone, part of an extended family, what more could anyone ever want or need. The circle of life complete with all its components, a gift of joy in a sweet little baby.
Thank you to family and friends for sharing in our joy. Your gifts, phone calls and visits have meant so much to us. We love you!
I'm off to the hospital to hold my grandson.
