My new grandson.

As I coached and encouraged my youngest daughter to breathe…as I kept quiet when I sensed her pain and frustration…as I brushed the hair from her forehead, held her hand, whispered in her ear…as I chanted “Push” I realized in those moments just how miraculous a birth really is. My heart thumping as I looked from Magen to her big sister who was accommodating and loving her, to the crowning of my grandson’s head…watching Magen’s hand reach down and touch the top of his head with her fingers whisping his hair, then to the hospital band circling her wrist with her given name and birth date….that’s when the tears filled my eyes. God is amazing and he stretched his tender hand down to form a tiny little bundle of amazement for us all. His name is Dimitri Morris Cooper Schulz and he is blessed to have the love of two adoring, doting parents who are in turn blessed to be loved by very supportive family. This circle of love engulfs this baby and gives him a extremely, encouraging beginning into his new world. Thank you Dear Lord, from who ALL blessings flow.
