cousinly love

Here's an excerpt from my Aunt Darlene's email describing my cousins' excitement over Ivy's birth...Too cute not to share!

We are so excited to hear of the birth of Ivy Sue!! The kids each came to me separately Sunday morning (Andy got the word while I was in a prayer meeting before church) and wanted to be the first to tell me about Ivy Sue! The boys enjoy "chanting" her name (FYI-- if she becomes some sort of celebrity or sports star, we have it firsthand that her name makes a great chant!:)
They were enjoying telling everyone at church about their new baby cousin. It was reported back to me that Zeb told someone, "I have a new baby, Ivy Sue. Her water broke yesterday." :)


Later in the afternoon, Zeb reminded me of Ivy Sue again, saying, "We got her Sunday morning." Needless to say, we are all anxious to meet her!
