Hi, it’s Kristin..a friend and neighbor of the Stone Family. I’ve been searching for the time to get on this blog for a week now and had intended to recount the birth from my vantage point but I decided that Jen did a great job with that and I, instead will write a letter to the newest addition to the family.
Welcome to the world Brodie Walker. I was at your birth. I saw you take your first breath. You are 8 days old today and I still haven’t held you! I’m dying to. Peter thinks holding you will make me want another baby. Right now I’m quite content with the two fabulous little boys I have and I think holding you will remind me how blessed I am. And you, Brodie, how blessed you are! You have been born into a fantastic family and you are so loved! You are the latest addition to “Team Stone”. You may have to ride the pine for a while, observing how the team plays and works together, but eventually you’ll find your way off the bench and realize your place on the team. You’ll figure out the strengths of each player, like your brother Isaac’s kindness and amazing imagination. Oh the adventures he’ll take you on! And your sister Ali, intense and cautious on the surface but a real ball of spunk under that exterior. The coaches of your team, your mom and dad, care very much about the development and success of this team and put all their energy into seeing it thrive. Brodie, you’re the final player in this game and I look so forward to seeing what you bring to the team. Welcome to the world little man and Congratulations to the Stone Party of Five.
Much love always,
Kristin
