Everyone has a story.
A story that tells where they've been; and how they've gotten to where they are.
Babies are not only a blessing from God...but tremendous miracles.
Some of our little blessings took a little more of a miracle to get here than others though.
This little blessing is one of those miracles.
She was prayed for. Hoped for. And loved by many even before she took her first breath.
The hospital waiting room was full of Chuck and Anna's precious family and friend.
And this little guy who was, I'm pretty sure, more excited than anyone else there.
In his perfect 3 year old way, he had waited long enough for his sister's arrival and was more than ready to become a Big Brother today!
And when his Daddy walked through those doors holding his baby sister, it could no longer be contained!
My Baby! My Baby! My Baby!!!
Could there be greater joy?
Such a beautiful baby girl and such a proud Daddy!
This would be the first of many Sweet Big Brother kisses.
Thomas was so excited to see his Daddy after he brought Kennedy to the nursery.
Daddy Daddy Daddy!
He watched so intently as they gave Kennedy her bath, a shot, and got her ready in the nursery.
And got some good loving from Gran, Anna's Mama, such a sweet bond!
Welcome to the family baby girl!
Thomas could hardly contain himself. He wanted to hold
that baby! I just love how he was looking at his Daddy.
He was just fascinated with baby Kennedy's tiny fingers.
And Melt.My.Heart. with that Big Brother kiss!
Kennedy was so peaceful.
Especially in her Great Grandmother's arms.
This is Anna's mother's mother who is 89 years young!
And this has to be one of my favorites of the day:
Look at those beautiful hands. One so tiny. One so wise.
Chuck's parents, Nana and Pop, were there as well to welcome their fourth grandbaby. So much love!
There's nothing like having a daughter...
Except when your daughter has a daughter.
One very proud Grandma and one very happy Mama.
Kennedy Anne
Thank you Anna, Chuck and Thomas for inviting me to spend the day with your precious family! Kennedy is perfect in every way!
