...And Then There Were Three


Matilda Lynn Westra was born September 3, 2009 at 12:15PM weighing 5lbs 15oz and 18 inches long. She did such a great job, and didnt make her mommy labor long. This is her very first picture. She is about a minute old. Beautiful and perfect from the start, wasnt she? And that's Doctor Turner in the background. He is the best doctor of all time!


I knew that Mati was a miracle from the day we found out I was pregnant, but I was not in the least bit prepared for how special this moment would be. Nothing compares to the feeling of holding her in my arms for the first time.


Our first family photo...



What a magnificent gift from God children are! I think he gives us a taste of what it is to create life because He so loved creating us. And what a miracle it is!
