Frankie, my youngest sis, has not had the time to blog since Band Camp started back in July. She and her oldest daughter were here to help us when I hurt my knee. They went home to the two week band camp, and they've been on the run ever since. Frankie was Uniform Mom for this year's marching season. She headed the crew of ladies who saw to it that everyone was dressed appropriately, in a clean uniform in good repair, whether they marched inside or out.
Marching band ended in October, so I thought for sure she'd find a moment to blog. And something really momentous has happened, so I thought for SURE she would blog....but nothing. So I'll do it for her.
Frankie is a grammy! Her step-daughter gave birth on Tuesday morning at 11:35, a healthy baby boy. He came out at 7 pounds 6 ounces. My nieces are aunties, now! *G*
Congratulations, Frankie and Major Frankie, and the new Mom and Dad!

Thank you, thank you! I'll let Frankie know that she needs to read here, and at her blog.

Unfortunately, I couldn't figure out how to leave a comment on Frankie's blog. Either I've gone blind or she's been off so long that the system won't allow comments. I sent her an email, instead.

I should have thought of that, Cop Car. I think our host at RedEagleSpirit had to close the comments in the archives because we were having such a problem with spam. I'm sure she will enjoy the e-mail from you.

Thank you so much for heralding the news. I'll have to explain why I'm so buried at some point. Band camp, band season are the least of it! I am looking forward to coming back to the keyboard and to my blog. I hope T hasn't given up on me!! I'm hoping when I get pictures of the baby to get back to blogging with a bang! LU!!

When you have pictures of the newcomer (think about a nickname for him), maybe we can send the file to ~T~ and she will post the picture for you. That way we'll be sure it fits the screen! *G* Then you can blog about how perfect he is! *S*
We'll be glad to see you back at the blog, when your busy life allows.
