H.R. No. 127
R E S O L U T I O N
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.
