Celebrating a New Interview at Rachna's Scriptorium and Our House-sitter's Baby Boy.



This is such a fun blog hop: "Celebrate the small things." It's co-hosted by Lexa Cain @ Lexa Cain with co-hosts
L.G. Keltner @ Writing Off The EdgeTonja Drecker @ Kidbits Blog     
You can go to any of these to get all the links and add your name to the links. 

1. Today I'm celebrating because Rachna Chhabria is interviewing me on her wonderful blog, Rachna's Scriptorium. Rachna and I go way back. She was one of my first blog friends when I started my blog. She's a published author in India and her blog is full of interesting posts about writing, as well as interviews and reviews. You can check our her blog and the interview HERE.

2. I'm also celebrating the arrival of our house-sitters' new baby, Owen. Owen it just the cutest thing, and my husband and I got to meet him three days ago. He's utterly precious! I'd post a picture, but I think that's the parents' prerogative, not mine. Trust me, he's adorable, and my husband and I took turns holding him and cooing at him and making ourselves really dopey over him. New babies are such a wonder!

Hope you are celebrating something nice today and that you have a great week-end. Please leave a comment about your good news.

      Thanks, Lori. I was so pleased how the cover turned out. The designer, Bob Gibson, did a good job.

    Norma showed me a couple photos of Owen --emailed from his proud grandma. He is a very big baby!

      Gosh, he felt so small to us. We were at Jerrilee and William's when Dana and Thomas brought Owen over. He has a very sweet temperament. So cuddly, too!

    Newborns are so sweet. Although I'm done with my family, a little part of me sees one and kind of wishes I would have had 5 or 6 or 7... or maybe not :)

      They certainly do bring out the nurturing impulse. And a sense of wonder, as well.

    Aw, sweet new baby. I get pretty dopy over babies too, but that's okay.

    Sorry, should have said congrats about the interview but I got distracted by the baby.

    S.P., thanks on both counts. Owen has stolen my heart, so I can understand the distraction. :-)
