The Story of Luke Continues

                                                                      "Monday, Sept 3 , 1979

       Today was labor Day.  Your poor Daddy had to work and was sad that he couldn't be with you and your Mommie.
        Aunt Mary Beth, Aunt Anne, Mommie and I went to visit you at the hospital.  You looked great.  You are gaining each day and we are so happy.
         When we got home we went to the Ground Round for dinner - that is all of us, but your mother and Aunt Anna. Brian and Diane were good little children. We had to wait a long time for dinner because the waitress quit in the middle of serving us.  One good thing came because of the delay. Uncle Bob expressed his disappointment with the restaurant to our new waitress.  She spke to the manager and we were not charged for our dinner - only the beer which Aunt Anne treated us to."

Some things never change - Bob being given the job of spokesperson.  Aunt Anne treating us.

        Today Grandpa, Aunt Anne, and Aunt Anna went back to the city.  Grandpa took your Mom, Aunt Anne and me to the hospital.  We were elated to learn you now weigh 1120 grams which is almost 2 lbs 8 oz.   On the way home Grandma bought an Activity Box as a shower gift for Virginia Pascarelli's new baby ( for the shower).
          We had a delicious stew, broccoli, mashed potatoes and tomatoes.  After dinner Grandpa, Aunt Anne & Aunt Anna left for the city.  We had a quiet evening."

This is the quiet before the storm which is coming soon!
