January has been quite a journey! Five births in eight days. Two (and maybe three, making six births, when it’s all said and done) were born just on the cusp of the winter storm. God is the ultimate chess player and always aligns things how they should go, but I’m not going to lie, I think I was just a teeny bit nervous when my third mama called, as temps began to fall, and after I’d been up for 40 plus hours. He worked it all out.
Congrats to the super speedy mama, whose baby I almost delivered, and came between another mama. Congrats to the mama who showed strength and endurance over two days and two nights. Congrats to the mama last Monday, who conquered fears from her first birth and delivered her second beautifully, and congrats to the two mamas before her, delivering on the same date. Yes, I was a ALL of them!
It’s certainly been exciting and it’s not quite over. Pray for the last January mama, that her birth is after the ice melts and is the sweetest and most favored birth!
