There has been a shower for every occasion ~ a shower for Granna, showers for Jessica & Brannan and showers for Gabrielle & Greyson. We had surprise showers, crawfish boil showers, brunch showers, fishing tournament showers, family showers...you name them, we've had them.
Jessica's co-workers held a baby shower for Brannan at Adventure Lake June 9.
Anna McCrory & Bethany Lott held a Baby Brunch for Brannan on June 5 at Jessica & Benji's home in Petal.
Brannan's family shower was hosted by Melissa Ogden & Jennifer Butler on June 12 at Jessica & Benji's home.
A baby shower for Greyson was held on July 17 at the home of Barry & Pat Lewis. The occasion was hosted by Big Mama, Aunt Linda, Aunt Bev, Stephanie & Amanda.
Greyson has all four great-grandmothers living and all were in attendance at the shower in his honor. L-R Big M

I make quilts...
all colors & sizes - for lots of different people.
When creating a quilt, I am allowed to sew various pieces of fabric into something that can provide comfort, warmth & solace to the recipient. Most of all, it allows me time to reflect upon the life of the person I am making the quilt for and how my knowing them has affected my life.
What better way to document the exciting changes in my life than through this medium!! As most of you know, last November I put up a Christmas tree in my home after a 12 year hiatus and proclaimed Christmas 2009 as my "miracle Christmas". Little did I know the miracles that would follow.
On December 8, Jessica provided the proof of my first miracle - she & Benji would receive a blessing from Heaven. After a frustrating year of trying to conceive a baby, her pregnancy test came back positive with an expected due date of August 15. The first ultrasound was done & I was given a framed picture of Baby Sessums for Christmas.
On January 11, Matthew phoned to ask, "Mom, how would you feel about having a 2nd grandchild?" Needless to say, I was elated at the thought of having not one, but two grandchildren due within three weeks of each other.
Fast forward to today - both Jessica & Gabrielle are doing wonderful in their pregnancies, neither have been really sick and both are expecting boys. I CAN do boys!!!
