sweet opal

OK, on to describing the Happy Events of 2009. On the very same day my dad died, my amazing sissy brought her baby girl into the world: sweet, sweet Opal! What an amazing turn of events, huh? Opal really is the sweetest little thing. I am a proud auntie AND her godmother!

My sister-in-law Sarah knit the cute little hat she is wearing here. I love this picture of you, Em!

I knit this sweater a while back, and Emily always had her eye on it. So it became Opal's! I can't believe she has already outgrown it. Stop growing so fast, baby girl!
