I stumbled upon a birth story that may quite possibly be the MOST beautiful thing I have ever read. I feel like I was a witness to this birth the way she so accurately and intimately describes it. Maybe it's because her story resonates so deeply with my own story.
Get ready to be completely moved by this....Nella Cordelia
Living life one day at a time as a family of six...3 busy and bouncy boys and 1 Ukrainian princess. Our third son Joaquin was our unexpected blessing who came to us with a little something extra called Down syndrome and inspired us to adopt Sofia an orphan we fell in love with through Reece's Rainbow. We hope that our story will help open people's eyes to the beauty and gift that ALL children are. We are all more alike than different!
I came across it too....I still have chills from reading it and of course was so emotional. I felt like I was ready my own story. I so vividly remembered how I felt that day after reading her detail of her day.
ReplyDelete...wow. so beautiful.
I also read that the other day. So beautiful! Her writing is gorgeous... I wish I could express myself the way she does. Lovely birth story!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for sharing this. I am moved to tears.
ReplyDeleteI will never know what it feels like to give birth then find out, but I do know what it feels like to hope, pray and wait for 4 months. I also know the feeling is the same - you immediately pray for their health and fall in love the moment your eyes are laid upon them!
Thank you again for sharing! This warmed my heart.
That was amazing. Thanks for passing it along!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful, indeed.
ReplyDeleteJen, I sobbed through most of that. Thank you for sharing. Wow!
ReplyDeleteThis just made me burst into tears
ReplyDelete"Love me. Love me. I'm not what you expected, but oh, please love me."
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful story.
Thank you for sharing this on your blog. I can relate to the way she felt in so many ways. I am sure you can too. I remember you are the DS Convention. Your little guy is such a doll! Hope i can start posting blogs, this is such a great way to meet other moms!
