Yes, I had a great weekend! My new niece, Anna Charis, was born Saturday night at 9:37pm at 6lbs 9oz, 20 1/4" long. She is beautiful - just like the rest of her family! She and Mom both did a great job and had a relatively short labor and delivery time. They were to go home from the hospital sometime yesterday afternoon and Susannah's family is due in town tomorrow.
What a blessing that God and this family of friends has allowed me to really be a part of their family since mine is so far away and seen so infrequently. It is so thrilling to me to be able to be part of a family on a day-to-day basis as well as sharing in these special times. It makes the sometimes loneliness of being a single bother me a whole lot less often. I love to show up at their house and have the boys coming running hollering my name and giving me hugs! My God is awesome!
Praise Him for the miracle of life and family!
