Hanah.

When I wrote last week's post about brand new baby Hanah ( who has her own special spelling of her name ), I thought a lot about what I wanted to say about Hannah, her namesake. It turns out that one of the family, Hannah's nephew Ron, had  already described her perfectly. This is what he said.


"When I was a boy it seemed as if Aunt Nan's love could eclipse the sun. Nan cared about her nieces and nephews with a passion. She was a lioness if anyone threatened them or did them harm. She watched over the following two generations - her grand-nephews and nieces, and then her great-nephews and nieces - with the same unqualified devotion."

I can see Hanah inspiring the very same devotion.

Congratulations! Your new niece is indeed adorable. A baby is such a wonderful little bundle of raw potential, don't you think? I especially love to borrow them temporarily and then happily return them to their parents when I get tired!
