After three adorable boys, a girl was born and that pink sweater I had bought at a Church bazaar finally had a rightful owner. On April 9, 1981, Anna Katharine Bennion was born in San Franciso's Children's Hospital - the princess of the Bennion household.... the Queen of all of our hearts! Happy Birthday, Anna!
