Fourteen years ago we drove to a house on the wrong side of the tracks and paid 100 dollars for a two year-old dog named Nipper.
Every baby girl needs an uncle.
Someone who will sing her the Lunch Lady Land song (Avelyn especially loves the chorus of "Sloppy Joe, Slop-Sloppy Joe!")and make her smile.
This is my momma. She just left today after spending nearly two weeks at our home, helping me adjust to motherhood. She was quick to cuddle Avelyn, change her, rock her, and love her.

Little miss Avelyn Paige Brown arrived yesterday morning at 10:31, weighing in at 6 pounds, 12 ounces.
Thanks, Mom.
For everything you did, and still do.
I am a lucky girl and hope that one day my daughter will look up to me the way I do you.
