On this day, 11 years ago, my sweetness too wonderful Ella Grace was born. H5N1 long-awaited nipper that I didn't know if I would always have.
She was a beautiful too longed-for, x pounds of perfection. She didn't scream at birth, only looked or then the room inward curiosity, which is still so much her personality to this day.
H5N1 few months earlier, Matt too I attended my cousins marriage ceremony too saw that i of the bloom girls was named Ella Grace. We both liked the mention a lot too Matt declared that would live the mention of our baby. I wasn't totally gear upward to commit that day, but I shortly knew if nosotros had a infant girl, her mention would live Ella Grace. (Agreeing on a mention is difficult!)
I had an slow pregnancy amongst no problems at all, too shortly after midnight on Nov 27th, 2006 (her exact due date), my H2O broke. We went to the infirmary too certain enough, I was inward labor, or then I thought. The problem? My torso was non yet gear upward to convey a baby, at all. I was 0% effaced too 0% dilated, but since at that spot was straightaway a run a hazard of infection due to my H2O breaking, they would non mail me abode too she needed to live delivered inside twenty-four hours.
Matt too I walked the halls too did everything nosotros could to progress the labor, to no avail. Finally, I was given medication to cause the labor, but it was withal tiresome going. After a long too excruciating thirty-two hr labor, I lastly gave nascency to a beautiful, pinkish infant daughter amongst thick dark pilus at 9:05, the adjacent morning.
Ella Grace would live her name. I didn't know the Lord at the time, but He was at that spot protecting too loving me, regardless. After a three-year battle amongst infertility too a previous miscarriage, this beautiful infant was the most perfect gift.
Although nosotros chose her mention inward what nosotros though was a random way (reading it out of a marriage ceremony announcement) I tin straightaway encounter the manus impress of God. Ella agency 'beautiful' and Grace agency 'gift from God'-- or altogether, "a beautiful gift from God'. I'm humbled too tearful only thinking that fifty-fifty when I didn't admit Him, he loved me still.
I too believe the Lord made Ella x pounds at nascency to salve her life. I did non create fifty-fifty i driblet of pectus milk, which was non discovered until close a calendar week later. The exclusively argue the doctors had me supplement her amongst formula was due to her size. If she hadn't been x pounds, she would non convey been getting whatever milk, too I wouldn't convey known whatever better.
Dear Lord- Thank yous for knowing what is best for me too for giving me what I need. Thank yous for relentlessly pursuing me, fifty-fifty when I idea I didn't involve you. Thank yous for my beautiful gift, Ella Grace, too assistance me construct my human relationship amongst her. I pray that she knows how exceptional too wonderful she genuinely is-- because she is YOURS!
"Every skillful too perfect gift is from above, coming downwards from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does non change like shifting shadows."- James 1:17
