The Pragmatic Perspective

I'm an auntie! My sister and husband welcomed their first, a son. Julian James Berg Born November 21, 2007 6 pounds, 7 ounces In Anchorage, Alaska Congratulations to my dear sister and brother-in-law, Jonae and Jordan. PS-They are all home as of Friday, and feeling well. My mom arrived the day before birth, so she is being a great help to the new family! Julian eats well and only cries from gas pains. He is wide-eyed and quite alert right after nursing; and sleeping well in between. I am so happy for them all! Now we just have to wait to see the little guy for a while. Blessings and peace to the Bergs!

I haven't spent as much time updating this blog of late. I must confess that I'm on myspace now, too. There was never much time for either to begin with, so please bear with me if you wish! (This pic [thanks, Zoe]is my best method of smile conveyance .)

It is beautiful when the yellow, rust, and red leaves contrast with the sky. All our leaves have fallen now. I miss the color; mostly gray has set in, except the back yard grass is still green. As much as I don't look forward to the ice and snow; I know it will wash away the gray. Here's to orange walls in the house!
