He is strong and healthy- aside from a little jaundice, despite the fact that he was 4 wks. early. We are so excited that our beautiful baby boy is here! He is beautiful!

This is Julian's first website with pictures of ultrasounds before he arrived, Mommy's baby belly as he grows and much more to come. We love Daddy for taking such good care of Mommy and Baby. Please sign our guestbook so we know you have visited.

To My 1st Grandchild, Julian Matthew Delan
I would like to open this letter to my first grandchild by saying how very thrilled I am by the thought of you. You represent the concept of my reaching the next plateau in my life. I'm so looking forward to your coming into our lives in your own due time. God has a very special day planned for your birth and your arrival. There has never been anyone before, nor will there be after, that is just like you. You are unique, and individual, with a personality and characteristics that no one else will ever have. I already envision what you will become. For I am certain you are destined for great things, God is preparing you to have a very special place in His-story.
When your Mommy and Daddy told me, tears suddenly came to my eyes as I realized what they were telling me. I just kept saying over and over, "We're having a baby" I was a grandmother – or would be when you were finally born. But for now, you were growing in that special place within Mommy, a living, breathing little being, a gift from God. My first grandchild! How could I possibly deserve this joy!!!! I'm happy and in awe by the wonder and power of nature. From the moment of conception you were loved and will be loved all the days of your life.
So I built this website just for you so we can all share these happy times and watch you grow. We started with your 1st ultrasound and we will put your newborn pictures on your site as you grow for everyone to see.
Someday when you are grown you will see that God replaces the energy of youth with wisdom for the aging. It is through the eyes of wisdom that I try to communicate my thoughts of this letter.
You are my little angel on earth, my Baby Julian. I love you already!
Grandma Julia JULIAN MATTHEW Before you were conceived, we wanted you Before you are even born, we love you Before you are even here an hour, we would die for you This is a MIRACLE of life ~~Maureen Hawkins
"Our Family"
Our family is a circle of strength and love. With every birth and every union, the circle grows. Every joy shared adds more love. Every crisis faced together makes the circle stronger. (copied)
