Our newest daughter...

Dear sweet Bee,

Our world just got even more beautiful as God gifted us with you. You are our third daughter and you made your entrance in the third month, on the third day at exactly 3:00 am. You are practically perfect in every way and we couldn't be more thrilled with you.

Your birth story had to be eventful.  Had to be. Nothing is boring in our family. You had to be dramatic because both of your big sisters are. So why would we expect anything less from you sweet one? Complications with blood pressure and you not cooperating by dropping your heart rate over and over...well that kept mommy from having the natural birth plan she expected--but you came nonetheless by emergency c-section in all your 9 lbs. 2 oz. and 20 inches of glory! Words aren't created to describe the moment I heard your cry and saw your face.  The moment I saw your daddy's eyes well up with tears at the sight of you being born. You were a dream I didn't fully realize I'd never stopped dreaming about....and in that moment you were born that dream came true. A gift from our great big God...once again. As we'd been abundantly blessed with your two big sisters...each miracles from God...He chose to bless us again in a different way...with you.

Little one, I'll go ahead and tell you that my love for you is fierce. No single person on this earth will ever love you as intensely as your momma does. I love you and your big sisters more than life itself. I will always be your biggest cheerleader, your friend, your sounding board...but most of all, I hope to always be the one who teaches you about Jesus. I pray you find a great love and devotion to Him at an early age, I pray you grow to be a woman on fire for God and others. May you live your life as pleasing to an audience of One. May you always feel Him...even when mommy and daddy aren't able to be with you. It is my greatest joy to get to be a mom. I promise I'm going to mess up over and over and hurt your feelings in the process...but I guarantee that you'll know in your heart how deeply loved you are.

Lastly, your daddy--your daddy is a man of highest character.  He loves you with a love far deeper than he could ever express. He is going to treat you in such a way that you always know how a man should treat you. He's going to take you on dates for donuts--just ask your sisters. He's going to act silly just to get you to smile, he's going to embrace you when you fall or if you fail. He's going to pray for you, for your future, for your spouse, for God's plan for your gift of a life. You haven't a clue just how much you're going to love your daddy!

Welcome to our family, our sweet Bee. You are the one we waited for to complete our family. Our blessed and adored family. Oh how we are filled with the greatest joy and so thankful for our last little girl.

Love,
Momma
