And I Shall Be Lady Grantham…

Well, minus the Mutinous Maid, spacious home, and large inheritance that my husband married me for.

And minus the career path of going to lunch.

Okay, so we will have no other shared qualities besides our American sass, and our THREE DAUGHTERS.

(Antonio…you were wrong….)

So excited about housing half a sorority over here…excited and prayerful already for their relationships – for compassion and not competition…and communal clothing forever.

    HOORAY for the Simone’s!!! I’ll remind you that it took my parents five girls before they got Wyatt, and then they still ended up with me. :) Sisterhood is a beautiful thing and I’m praising God for the gift he has given to your lovely ladies. I’m moving to Nicaragua next week, but you know I won’t be a stranger. LOVE YOU!

    As the middle child of two sisters I have to say its a great way to grow up. Love that Travis will be a father to three girls….this is why I know so much about football. Also love that the only boy to give Travis male company in your home is still Judah. May he forever be the only young boy that makes sense in the Simone house for hours on end. Love you Nina! Love this baby! Love sisters!

    Hooray for Baby-Lady Sybil! (Which makes total sense, but then I laugh picturing Sophia as Mary and esp. Foo as Edith… haha.)

      RuthA Foo as Edith has always been the most amusing part of this whole scenario for me. Say it won’t be so!
