WHEREAS, June 13, 2013, was indeed a special day in the lives |
|
|
of Krista and Alex Stevens, for on that day they became the proud |
|
|
parents of a baby girl, Luella Leigh Stevens; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Although she made her long-awaited debut in Jackson, |
|
|
Wyoming, this charming bundle of joy has strong ties to the Lone |
|
|
Star State; her family has lived in Central Texas for five |
|
|
generations, and her forebears include judges, senators, and |
|
|
community leaders as well as the winner of the 1936 Texas Centennial |
|
|
Horse Race from Lampasas to Dallas; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Luella's birth has brought great happiness to her |
|
|
parents, as well as to her grandparents, Johnnie B. and Linda Rogers |
|
|
of Oakalla and Tom and Cheri Stevens of Camden, New York; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Not one to waste time lying around in her crib, this |
|
|
energetic one-month-old is demonstrating the confidence and sense |
|
|
of adventure for which Texans are famous; she has already been on |
|
|
two fishing excursions, has attended a July 4th celebration, and |
|
|
frequently Skypes to keep in contact with her wide circle of loved |
|
|
ones; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Luella Stevens has won the hearts of all who know |
|
|
her, and her Lone Star heritage will surely serve her well in the |
|
|
years ahead; now, therefore, be it |
|
|
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 83rd Texas |
|
|
Legislature, 2nd Called Session, hereby congratulate Krista and |
|
|
Alex Stevens on the birth of their daughter and recognize Luella |
|
|
Leigh Stevens as an honorary Texan, with all the rights and |
|
|
privileges accorded those individuals native to the Lone Star |
|
|
State; and, be it further |
|
|
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be |
|
|
prepared for the family as an expression of high regard by the Texas |
|
|
House of Representatives. |
