Bliss

It is 11:57 pm, July 10th 2010. I have been awake for 40 hours. I have sent emails with no attachments and photo albums with one picture- a not so flattering one at that. The screen moves in front of my face. But to my left is my husband and to my right, my little girl. I cannot articulate what she means to me, except to say that I do not want to sleep because I want to look at her. I do not want to stop nursing her because it means I would have to put her down. I want to soak every bit of her in, still in utter disbelief that God gave her to me. After I heal and rest, I will make something semi-coherant to describe July 9, 2010. But until then, some photos of the greatest gifts in my life.

  1. Keri! I have such joy this morning for you. I am praying for you not to miss one thing in the hospital and this first few weeks. She is adorable and your heart is so precious. I am humbled to see God break your heart in such a huge way. I love your new family of 3 and I look forward to raising these to 2010 babies together!
