So I went down to my sisters last week to await the arrival of her fifth yes fifth child. I was to be there at the birth. I was so excited to be there and share this experience with my sister and my awesome brother-in-law.
I drove done Friday night we weren't sure if I would make it. Well turns out little Nadia had other plans. She was just not ready to come out. I was there a total of 9 days before I had to come home to go back to work. What a bummer. I was so dissapointed that I couldn't be there.
You see my sister and I have this amazing relationship and it is always hard to leave. But this time it held a little more sadness.
But and there is always a but, what a wonderful week I had with her and all my nieces and nephews. I miss so much of there live being so far away. The time I get to spend with them is so precious.
God really just had other plans, and I have to trust that his will is always perfect. For some reason I was not meant to be there. But I get to love little Nadia with all my just like Emily, Kaleb, Avery, and Levi. What a sweet gift is to be an aunt.
WELCOME Nadia, you are very loved. I can't wait to meet you.
She is beautiful, just like her auntie!
