Happy Birthday Christine!

Can it be that 19 years ago Christine joined our family? We were just thinking back on the summer that she was born. We were living in the most awesome place on earth...Newhall, California. We had ended our days at BYU and Bill was just starting his career in Southern Cal. Christine was late making her arrival...ugh! Grandma McClintic drove up from San Diego to help with William...Papa, Grandma and Aunt Marnie came from Utah for her blessing. And lucky William got to play with "Marnie-tah" for an extra week after all of the excitement of a new baby wore off:) Christine was the perfect baby, both in temperment and appearance. One of the delivery nurses said she looked like a little princess, and the name stuck...we often called her "Princecita" (little princess in Spanish)...and shortened it to "Rita"...don't ask how or why...but I often call her "Rita" more that her own name. We are blessed to call her our own. We love you Sweetheart! Happy Birthday (belated...:)!!!
