My co-worker and good friend Dionne Brady, welcomed her first child about a month ago and Hailey and I were lucky enough to visit with them last week. Joy was by far the most beautiful newborn I have ever seen. Dionne delivered on the night shift (such a good night shift nurse), so we were blessed with the chance to be there for her delivery. I have to say, I am in awe of the process in every delivery I attend. Its amazing what we as women are capable of creating, we make life. Its awesome. But to be there with my friend, this woman I have watched carry her first child from beginning to end, it was a moment I will never forget. Dionne was incredible during her delivery, Joy came into the world as beautiful as a porcelain doll, and I got to be there to witness it all. I consider myself very lucky.
Hailey loved her. Couldn't get enough of reading her stories, singing her songs, and telling Dionne and I to be quiet because Baby Joy was sleeping. Gives me immense hope that she will be the fabulous big sister I know she wants to be!
