New Niece Arrives!

We have a new niece! My husband John’s youngest brother Marty is now
the thankful father to his 4th child and 1st daughter, Mashayla Catherine
Plocher, born on Tuesday night. Mashayla and her mother Jill are
healthy and home in Peridot, Arizona with big brothers Malachi,
Zachariah, and Isaiah.

My own daughter Jessica at 17 is the oldest in her generation of
14 children (on both sides of the family). Mashayla is now the youngest
and one of only 4 girls.
