12.10.09 PersonalThe Miracle of Birth - Adalei Grace |
A fter nine months of anticipation, baby Adalei made her appearance. Yesterday evening she was pushed from the security of the womb to this new, wonderful, and sometimes frightening experience called life. If the sky were made of paper and I had a river full of ink, and if I were the worlds finest poet, I could never describe what the miracle of birth means to me! I could hear her crying as I walked down the hallway and just couldn't get to the room fast enough. Although I'd never seen her before, it seemed as though I recognized her cry and instantly... I loved her!
A new baby is like the beginning of all things - wonder, hope, a dream of possibilities. ~ Eda J Leshan ~ |
