Guess What?

We get to pick up Jude today!

More later today.

Also, I had a dream that Jude's real parents were Darko Milicic and Heather Graham. I don't know what that means.

Lots and lots of love are being sent to you Amanda, Jon and Jude. Congradulations on all the sleepless nights you will not have. hee, hee. Seriously, the best to all 3 of you. You world has just grown larger when Jude goes through the door of home. My precious memories are coming and a few heartaches but it is the greatest job you will every have. The benefits will most assuredly outweight the losses. Well, lots of love to you all. Granny Jean and Aunt Lolita We love you.

oops, goofed up, I meant to say all the sleepless nights you will have. But hey that may be a sign that you will not have the sleepless nights. Who knows.Well it seems I made more than one goof. Shouldn't try to type and think at the same time. Most likely I am still asleep, I sure feel as though I am. I meant more precious memories instead of my. Was thinking of my own two. Anyway congradulations again and we love you all.

Hi Jon, Amanda and Jude,
Your folks (Jon) are really good friends of mine. As a matter of fact you may have heard of the Nashville Just Joan Wilder...That's me. I am the Realtor that sold them their home in Spring Hill and I love them. I have a daughter in Forensics (6th place state in comedy duo and headed toward Senior year) and understand what you guys are going through 1st hand. One day I will tell you all about that maybe. But today I want to remind you of something that occurred to me...

Hey Jude was originally written for Julian Lennon, the son of John Lennon, by Paul, you know who, when he was driving out to visit Cynthia Lennon and Julian after the divorce. Paul intended to comfort Julian from the stress of his parents' divorce. Julian didn't know that for 20 years. The words ..."Hey Jude don't make it bad, take a sad song and make it better"... I think really fit what you are going through. Why??? Because you two are doing just that and in an amazing way. You are letting us be a part of a beautiful little boy's life even though it started off, so not what we all expected. He's strong and he's beautiful too. He is going to be an incredible blessing to you as he grows up. So keep 'taking that sad song and making it better'. The minute I let you into my heart...then I began to pray it gets better...better...better...better...better...better...Woooo....Na Na Na Na Na Na Na....Na Na Na Na...Hey Jude....!!!!!!! We welcome you and you have a GREAT family!!! Love Just Joan Wilder Hall
