    Congratulations to my wonderful son, Jake and the greatest daughter-in-law ever, Laura. Dad and your sisters are on cloud nine. This has been a long road which is finally coming to an end. YEAH! We all can not wait till Ayla is here in Louisville, KY. We all will be excited if you bring Ayla a brother or sister home on the same visit. You two will be the greatest parents. We LOVE you ALL!
