GRANDCHILDREN

The newest addition to my grandchildren is Caden Michael Larrew, born on June 19, 2006 and was 5 pounds 11 ounces and 18 inches long. He's a beautiful baby and here is a picture of him and his daddy, Ben.

Caden's life so far, see the powerpoint presentation at http://www.public.iastate.edu/~kjlgood/CadensLife.ppt

This little guy is Carter my first grandson, don't let him fool you here cause now he's nine years old. He's my basketball star! He loves shooting baskets, playing ball with his dad, learning Spanish. Then on March 28, 1998, Blake Jean was born into this world premature at 11:58 p.m., and his twin brother, Bailey Jean was born into Gods arms on angel's wings March 29 at 12:10 a.m. and is in heaven. Blake is doing well and is a real chunk now.

Ok now we have em all... This is Blake at one year old. Isn't he a cute little tike?

A special dedication to Bailey Jean Amundson
who was born into the Father's Arms on Angels wings on
March 29th, 1998 from his
Great Uncle Joe Carlson to Tabatha and Johnathon Amundson.

"A WISH FOR YOU"

Christmas in the home was filled with laughter.
Children playing and shaking the rafters,
family was all together sharing
talking and laughing and caring,
but someone was missing amongst this gay crowd,
a little boy blue who's missing you,
he's gone far way yet he seems with us too.
Then I knew it was Bailey who had gone away,
he was your son who wanted but could not stay,
for he wasn't too well and you shed many tears,
and for you I just wanted to make him appear,
so I took out a photo and examined it close
and found that Blake somehow had a ghost,
who stays close beside him through all of his days,
and he is now in heaven and for you he prays.
I know there is someone you wish was at home,
which is the reason for me writing this poem.
With love for you and your family Tab.

A wish is a dream for something to come true, for I know
that Bailey isn't with you, yet he is with you in spirit
and truth, he's sort of watching and waiting to see if
you will do what is needed to join him in heaven one
day.
