		<description>I asked Granddad, the other day, if he thought our precious grandson had been born yet. He said &quot;I don&#039;t know but I can&#039;t wait to get my grubby hands on him!&quot; My sentiment exactly. I&#039;m so eager to rock this baby and call him by name. He already has a special place in my heart. Oh no, I&#039;m about to cry. Well, you know I already love him so much. I&#039;m thankful God has given you a heart for this child. I&#039;m so proud of you and Casey!</description>

		<description>Mary Beth,

  I feel as though God has called you, Casey &amp; Caleb on a wonderful journey to your son. You are so gifted!  Your passion flows into your writing. I am always excited to see your next post, what you have written. Someday I am sure I will be reading a book by you and you can be sure I&#039;ll read it all in one sitting!!</description>
