Jenna's getting bigger! Summer 2007 pics..

[Catty1]

WOW. Someone is getting all growed up!

What a beautiful little girl! And how wonderful Granny D is looking after things.

I hope things are working out as they should in the rest of the family.

I can't believe Jenna is going to be THREE already. Wow, time sure flies by fast.

I've said this before Kim and I am going to say it again. Jenna is the prettiest little girl I have ever seen.

The pictures are lovely, but I was really taken back by the second one.

She IS one precious girl, that's for sure.

I pray that all is going well for you and your family.

I truly appreciate all of your very kind and sweet comments on our Jenna. They do my heart such good!

I wish I could say things were better with my daughter and Jenna's father, but they are as bad as ever. I just thank God every day that Jenna is safe, healthy and loved by her other grandmother. She is wonderful about letting Jerry and me get her whenever we can as well. Things could have really been bad about this arrangement, but instead we have been blessed with "in laws" that care!

Thank you again!!!

Love,
Kim

Kim, I am sorry to hear that things are still bad with your daughter. Gosh when is that girl ever going to grow up. You figure having a baby would have straightened her out by now. It's too bad she has her priorities wrong.

I am so happy to hear that the in-laws let you get Jenna whenever you can and that she is safe in the hands of both her grandparents.

Thank you, Lorraine. I still beat myself up over not taking Jenna myself, but I know my limitations and I just could not handle it. Jerry and I are worn out after an hour or two when she visits! We just aren't up to raising a 2, 3, 4, you get the idea ... anymore! I just hope and pray that we will somehow have a positive influence on her little life and she will always know that we love her so very deeply!

(hugs)
Kim

Kim - I haven't had children, but it's my understanding, backed up in chats I have had with people, that if a child has adults in their life that are strong and there for them - even if it is just one person and that one is a teacher or non-family - then they do just fine.

Jenna sure looks secure, knows she is loved, and has a 'home' and a great place she visits too!

I am glad so much good is coming to her. Her own mom, unfortunately, will have to figure things out on her own. Even if she suddenly cleaned up today - it would be a long time before the court would let her petition for custody.

HUGS!

And prayers for all - including the two grown children.

You know, to be a thirteen year old kid with a girlfriend, i think i might save that picture.

Kim, Miss Jenna has gotten BIG! I love the photo of her with granddad. How are your daughters?

[jackmilliesmom]

I have been thinking about you all and this was a nice surprise to come accross hello Jenna hope you are well and taking care of all of your Grandma's and your poppy and giving them lots of hugs and kisses.


Kim delighted she is doing so well dare I ask or how are things otherwise with Amybeth and Chad

I just hope and pray that we will somehow have a positive influence on her little life and she will always know that we love her so very deeply!Kim

It is clear from those photos what a happy life little Jenna has with her doting grandparents. She knows you will always be there for her no matter what.

She is rather gorgeous

[4 Dog Mother]

Wow, Kim how big Jenna is getting! They sure grow fast don't they? You can see from her pictures that she is doing fine with BOTH sets of grandparents being there for her. Don't beat yourself up about not taking her yourself. I know from experience that it is very hard to keep up with little ones as you get older. Thank God Chad's mother feels up to it. As long as you and "Poppy" find time for her and enjoy being with her during those times, she will grow up feeling very much loved.

Cassiesmom, Jackmilliesmom - see post 18 about the biological parents.
