"Dear Family Members:
All is well at the Hardy home on Sugarman Court in La Jolla, CA.
The big news is that we have expanded our family. John married high school sweetheart Jennifer and they have a new baby girl named Meagan Janelle.
Jennifer comes from a family of nine and most of them live in La Jolla so Meagan has lots of aunts and uncles to spoil her.
Meagan came into the world weighing 9 lbs 4 oz and ready to go. She is very active and alert and about the most beautiful baby in the world. John attends UCSD and works at Jones Mortgage while Jennifer tends Meagan in their student housing nearby (which is also near our home). We love having them so near
Jennifer comes from a family of nine and most of them live in La Jolla so Meagan has lots of aunts and uncles to spoil her.
Meagan coming into our life was almost like having our first baby. It was such a special joy in our life. I would always want to be available to spend time with Meagan and she never disappointed. What a delightful child. It changed my life forever. Of course, she was just the first of many to follow but that first will always have a special place that no one else can take.
