home at last

Emily and Karissa made it safely home to Colton after quite an event-filled week at the Ogdensburg hospital. With her family surrounding her and Brian very much a part of the delivery process, Emily had a successful (yet painful)labor. As soon as Karissa's head appeared, not even fully out yet, she turned to Brian and began to sing (i.e. cry, in baby language.) He was able to hold her and feed her and be with her which was a real gift. If you want some more interesting stories, ask Emily and Noreen in person, I think you may laugh along with them hard enough to cry. Suffice it to say, the Keddys are unforgettable wherever they go.
Emily now is staying with her grandmother and her parents have moved in as well as they wait for construction to be finished on their Irish Settlement home. It's good to be back with family, and family are plentiful in these parts! Karissa Briley, a bundle of joy, is a perfectly healthy and beautiful little girl. See for yourself!
Now they wait for Brian's homecoming, and will be visiting him and preparing for this new part of the family. Welcome home little one.
