Nine years ago today I got the call that my 4th niece, Payton Elizabeth, was born. With a homemade sign on my dorm door announcing her birth I hightailed it out of Manhattan KS, college classes were still optional at that point, to meet the latest addition to my family.
While I'm pretty sure she didn't take a liking to me until after age 2, she's my only brown eyed girl and she was the only one I'd let be responsible for giving me my family nickname, Lulu.

Being Payton.
