Ruth Charlotte Norman.

I can't even write this without tearing up so it will be short.

I have never been so in love with God, my husband and another human as I am now.

It was (and still kind of is) the hardest thing that I could have never even imagined and for some crazy beautiful reason, the makes the magnitude that much more significant.

Praise God for mothers who have answered calls at 2am and come over and helped with the incredible newness of all of this.

She is beautiful and we are beyond blessed and praise God that somehow (I have no idea) He dreamed up something as beautiful as birth and babies.

Birth story to come-still recovering from the quite insane nature of it all :)

    She is BEAUTIFUL! Aww...so precious! I hope you're recovering well, as I'm sure the change of pace is going to take some adjusting.

  2. Aw! I think someone looks a fair bit like her daddy!! :) So very lovely Anna and you look fabulous! P.S. be careful putting that kind of bling on her fingers so early-you know she'll now never settle for less. ;)

  8. She is so beautiful. Perfect. I chatted with Meghan this past Sunday evening. She will be passing along a family recipe for you. What a blessing to see the result of months of making a person, human, an unbelievable mystery that even after five kids I don't get, but God knows what he was doing to place that gift of carrying our children into the mom, close to our hearts. So happy for your family.
