Reflecting back on the day Makenna was born

I have been reflecting back to the day Makenna was born a lot lately. I wanted to post some pictures of her when she was born so I could remember how tiny she was. Makenna only weighed 6 lbs 9 oz and seemed so small compared to my other girls who were both 7 1/2 lbs. I had am emergency C-section with Makenna and it was such a scary day. I remember when she was placed into my arms for the first time, the love I had for her was so great. She was warm and smelled so good, a brand new baby from heaven. I was the luckiest person alive at that moment. I have such a struggle throughout my pregnancies and nightmare deliveries, it seems like it takes me years to get those tiny miracles here. But I just keep doing it for many reasons, but one being it is a time that I feel so close to the spirit, like he is in the room right next to me. I have felt the Lord by my side at each one of the deliveries of my babies, what a comforting feeling that is. I know he has never left me alone during those frightful times in my life. I know that he sends these special spirits to me and on that day kisses them goodbye and lets me have them to love and to raise. I feel so honored to have been given that job. I will always remember the day my babies were born, it will linger in my heart forever. I want to make it a tradition to write about the day they were born on their birthdays and post pictures of them so tiny so I will never forget. I sure love my baby girls.
