Easter with Sanaa and Layla Pond

Gramma Carol and Papa Gene had the pleasure of enjoying an Easter Egg hunt with our lovely granddaughters here in Dallas at our church on Saturday!














We also had a great time celebrating Easter together on Easter Sunday!

Natalie and Isaac Pond are 1 week old!

It is amazing how fast time flies by!! After waiting so long for the twins to be born, they are here and we are looking back to their arrival exactly a week ago this morning! We were driving to Arkansas as fast as we could and getting minute by minute updates as Caleb was also racing to the hospital from Fayetteville to try to make it on time to the birth of his babies!! How exciting when we got the text that the Grandparents Cheyne could hear the babies cries outside the doors to the delivery room! Gene had to drive all the way, so that I could manage the calls, texts and emails to friends, family and co-workers! Those two precious bundles changed so many lives in such a short matter of hours!

Although I already have two darling grand-daughters that I love dearly, it is like I have a brand new heart for these babies that is full of love and the desire to watch them grow! Grandparenting is an amazing invention by God. We got to spend from their birth day through Sunday with them, but, of course, that was not enough...Caleb and Sarah are good enough to text us pictures to help us to cope!
