she's here! my beautiful neice has arrived! miss olive rae managed to make her appearance and i could not be more in love! i had the honor of being there for the birth, which was one of the most incredible things i've ever experienced. my dear sister, marcie, was so strong. i wish i could put it into words, this woman worked so hard to get that baby here. i have no doubt she's gonna be a great mom. olive is so very tiny. she has this sweet little baby girl cry. makes me sad that i won't be having any more :) i've always wanted to eventually become a liscensed doula, and this experience has brought that home for me. i hope in the future i'll have the opportunity to do that. i am so thankful to be a part of that little girls life!

Hi,
I found your blog through Penn Mommy. You have a great blog, beautiful children and a sweet little niece. Thank you for all the good reads. Please give a special hugs to all your little ones tonight. My daughters good friend lost her three month old little girl on Monday and when I saw your niece's picture and read your daughter's name the tears came. This sweet little baby girl's was named Aaliyah.

I have been extra upset with the Gosselin's this week,to me they do not seem to appreciate wat they ave and tis mommy just lost her baby. Thanks for listening.

confan, i am so very sorry to hear about your friend. i cannot imagine the heartache of losing a child. i am so thankful to have never been there. there are many days where, as one infamous mom said, "i very well might lose my mind". but i always remind myself, that i am so blessed to have these four little people. when they run around and scream and make messes and generally cause havoc, i am reminded that they are ABLE to walk, talk, run and be in my life. i will be praying for the family of baby aaliyah. my thoughts are with them. so glad you enjoyed the blog :)
