<P>ANCHORAGE, Alaska (AP) — Sarah Palin is a grandmother again.</P>
<P>Kyla Grace Palin <STRONG><FONT color=#ff0000>was born
Saturday</FONT></STRONG> to Palin's eldest son, 22-year-old Track Palin, and his
new wife, 21-year-old Britta Hanson.</P>
<P>Hanson's mother, Elizabeth Hanson, confirmed the birth and told The
Associated Press that the baby girl is "exquisite." At birth, the littlest Palin
weighed in at 6 pounds, 15 ounces (3.14 kilograms), according to the maternal
grandmother.</P>
<P>"She's adorable," she said Wednesday, adding that the family is doing well.
"We're all extremely excited about her arrival."</P>
<P>Sarah Palin, a former Alaska governor and the 2008 Republican vice
presidential nominee, is mulling a possible run for the presidency in 2012. She
has not made a public comment about the new addition to the family.</P>
<P>Track Palin and Britta Hanson were high-school sweethearts. They married
<STRONG><FONT color=#ff0000>three months</FONT></STRONG> ago at Hatcher Pass, a
scenic mountain pass not far from Sarah Palin's Wasilla home.</P>
<P>"Yes, they did & we couldn't be any more blessed!" Sarah Palin tweeted on
May 19.</P>
<P>Britta Hanson's father is the Rev. Duane Hanson, pastor of Good Shepherd
Lutheran Church in Wasilla.</P>
<P>Track Palin is an Army reservist. He spent a year deployed in Iraq with the
Army. When his mother was on the Republican ticket in 2008, she spoke at her
son's deployment ceremony.</P>
<P>Track Palin joined the Army on the sixth anniversary of the Sept. 11, 2001,
terrorist attacks. Hanson is a University of Alaska nursing students.</P>
<P>Sarah Palin and her husband, Todd, have four other children. Their other
grandchild is Tripp, who was born to then 18-year-old Bristol Palin, an unwed
mother who launched an abstinence campaign soon after giving birth in December
2008.</P>
<P>Bristol Palin, now 20, and the boy's father, Levi Johnston, are no longer
together.</P>
<P>Her pregnancy at age 17 was announced days after Sen. John McCain picked her
mother to be his running mate.</P>
<P id=hn-distributor-copyright><SPAN>_______________</SPAN></P>
<P><SPAN>Sorry Sarah, but your track record in bring up responsible children is
not impressive. Neither is that of Rev. Duane Hanson, pastor of Good
Shepherd Lutheran Church in Wasilla. The difference is that the Reverend
is was not a vice presidential candidate or a president wanna-be
preaching/screeching "family values.".</SPAN></P></FONT></DIV>
