What a super sweet little baby! I want to hold him!

Good luck on the interview! Sounds like a very, very positive step in getting your name out there!

He really is a cuddly little guy. :)

Thank you! I'm so excited to get going with this.

Great grand-baby? Please help me out with my math here. I'm confused!!

LOL :) I'm not surprised! It's a bit complicated. Here's how it works (I'm including the names so folks can associate this with my notes on FB):

1. Tom (my husband) had a son (Jeremy) when he was 17 (which is why he got married the first time).

2. Tom is 15 years older than me (we were 45 & 30 when we got married).

3. Jeremy is married to a woman (Stacy) 8 years older than him.

4. Stacy already had 2 children when they got married, the oldest, Courtney, the new mom, already 12 years old.

So - Tom's son is only 2 years younger than me, my daughter-in-law is older than me, Jeremy's step-daughter is only 10 years younger than him, which means the new mom (Courtney), 24 now, is only 12 years younger than me. Technically, the new baby is my... step great-grandson. Make sense? :)

Whoah. You just blew my mind.

The new baby is adorable! So cute.

Congrats on the interview; I look forward to hearing how it goes. Also, WAY TO GO to take those steps and get your name out there.

I'm very excited to see where all of this takes you. You've worked hard and it WILL pay off. :)

In regards to your help; I will be praying for answers. :)

Thank you! I'm so excited about it. Scared to death, but excited. :) Thank you!
