Our little pride and joy, Aurora Jean Jump was born on this day, August 15, 2010! She is already a "techy" with an acumen for keypads and computers. I am saving for a piano so she can use those long fingers. She is cute as a button, sharp as a tack, and a delight to all of us. Happy Birthday Aurora! We Love You ;-) !!!
