Baby are truely a blessing from above. You will have a lot of work ahead of you and I hope you enjoy your baby as time flies and they went from 6 months to three. I posted this poem for you as I thought it had a lot of heart in it. Sometimes our footsteps lead us where we never thought we'd go... Sometimes experiences left behind us are ones Lord chooses to show... As we get older and think that everything has been seen... Our Lord allows a miracle to show us we don't know anything... Sometimes the deepest agony can bring the greatest joy... Sometimes the journey is arduous that takes us where we need to go... At times we may wonder was it really worth the wait? But love is the greatest outcome And Love never comes too late... So sometimes when you may wonder if all the patience is worthwhile... There is nothing more rewarding Than a Newborn Baby's Smile. by Shannon Mitchell Back to top pause4poetry Moderator Joined: Jan 06, 2006 Posts: 1079 Location: Southern Illinois Status: Offline   Posted:Sep 05, 2007 - 06:19 PM Dear Freedom, Congratulations on your new baby girl !!!!

Hi everyone, I really truely appreciate this thread, I stopped in the other day to check some mail, and did not have time to do any reading...or even see this thread. Thank you Gene for bringing it to my attention;) She is abosolutely beautiful, and in awsome health. She looks just like her father, and to my concern acts like him too. Yea, imma have my hands full with this one. So long I teach her the value I have learned in my own life, and give her all I have, I think I will be capable of handing and raising an great person, and look forward to every moment I have with her. The experience was scary and painful, but as we all say..well worth it. I was bed ridden for a few weeks after surgery, so took a bit longer for me to get out and about. But doing great now. (and lost 45 pounds already! woohoo!) I am lacking internet acess at my home so are visiting the library once a week or so to stop by, so if anyone writes, or posts to me I am sorry if I do not reply sooner...hopefully soon I will be able to get up and running again and catch up here, as I need this site to keep my stamina strong and my heart in the right direction. I miss you all to the extreme and await the day I return here regularly. I hope everyone is doing well and on the right track in their lives. I know mine has been challenging and a bit broken, but I am steady hauling and nailing the pieces back where they belong. I luv you all, here is a few pics, big blue eyes, starting to smile so big and bright...just havent been able to capture on camera yet! Be around, freedom _________________ ~what happens to a person is less significant than what happens within them~ Back to top hopeseternal Devoted Joined: Mar 25, 2007 Posts: 346 Status: Offline   Posted:Oct 08, 2007 - 02:52 PM you're gonna be a great Mom and everything will be just fine. besides, what's a ride without a few bumps along the way? it would just be way too boring if all went smoothly all the time..... glad to hear your body's bouncing back -- i still haven't gotten my pre-babies body back and it drives me nuts!! well; joining a new gym in dec; and will totally be focussed on me for the first time in a long time; so maybe finally, i'll start looking back to the way i used to. glad to hear your baby's doing great. hear you soon. joanne Back to top freedomisprecious Forum Veteran Joined: Dec 19, 2004 Posts: 239 Location: Florida Status: Offline   Posted:Oct 08, 2007 - 02:55 PM here's a few more! _________________ ~what happens to a person is less significant than what happens within them~ Back to top lilbubba49 Devoted Joined: Apr 18, 2006 Posts: 711 Status: Offline   Posted:Oct 08, 2007 - 06:36 PM congrets freedom,Shes so beautiful,Im so happy for you and wish you all the best Hugs Diane Back to top lucyb Helping Hand I Joined: Nov 19, 2006 Posts: 711 Location: Maryland Status: Offline   Posted:Oct 09, 2007 - 05:59 PM Beautiful baby!

Lucy Back to top keepitreal Helping Hand IV Joined: July 04, 2006 Posts: 1454 Location: Southwest Side of Chicago Status: Offline   Posted:Oct 30, 2007 - 12:56 AM Hmmm, I don't know whether I should say, I spent some time talking with Freedom today, or... Today, Freedom spent some time listening to me talk away Anyhoo, mommy, daddy and lil precious, are doing well. Hmmm, let's see... Lil precious is beginning to smile. As Freedom was telling me this, about how the baby was beginning to smile... not only could I hear the love & joy, just in her words, But, I could feel the love and joy, just hearing her voice. Oh yea...today, lil precious received her first shots. Though...I really can't seem to recall, hearing or feeling any joy as she was telling me, the baby was not herself since receiving her shots! Ahhh, the joy's of motherhood Freedom says hi sends her love and wishes everyone peace Peace, Love & Strength Lynn _________________ Does your train of thought have a caboose?
