This morning at 1.47am Israel time 17.47pm Kansas Time , Miss Yummy, entered the world at the Natural Birth center Overland Park Kansas. Miss Yummy Silver weighed in at an amazing 9lbs 6oz and 22 inches long… she looks just like her father did when he was born.
When I heard months ago I was going to be a grandmother for the second time, I couldn’t believe anything would feel as amazing as when my grandson was born.
However this morning when I heard I had a granddaughter I burst into tears of happiness… I thought of all the bonding things that girls and their grand mothers do, all the rows of frilly dresses I had passed by over the years, but mainly about the special relationships that fathers and daughters have ,and how blessed my son will be to enjoy this relationship.
My heart burst with unconditional love when I heard her ‘voicing her needs” to her parents when on the phone.
Right now I hold her in my heart , and I can’t wait to hold her in my arms…and plot all things pink and frilly ( Just kidding Daniella!!)
I don’t know what Hashem has planned for this young lady, I only know that she is born to two amazing loving and responsible parents, who will give her so much love support guidance and understanding she will have the best of starts in life. I have seen how they bring up their son and I am so proud of them.
Little lady, this is your first day on this earth,you don't know your destiny ...your are to little to have objectives beyond your next feed. However I your Yaya wish you only health & happiness, that you grow up strong and caring, that you learn and understand how much you are loved by all the family, you learn the importance of friendship and community. You understand appreciate enjoy and are proud of your heritage and religion . You are not afraid to stand up for the thing’s you believe in, and try always to do the right thing by others. More importantly what ever choices you make in life may they be informed and good choices, you are always true to yourself and you take time to laugh and smile along life path because life is fun!!!.
Because of distance you might not see me as often as we would like, but your Yaya will always love your big brother & you and be there for you ...
Thank you Hashem for the safe delivery of this beautiful baby, into the world, all babies are miracles in their own right, they are all special, but excuse me while I kvell over the newest Miss Silver, and wish her Parents, and Big Brother,the other grandparents, great grand mother ,Uncles& Aunts and the whole extended family a hearty mazel tov on our own special bundle of joy as a family we are truly blessed.
May Hashem make you like Sarah, Rebecca, Rochel & Leah,
May Hashem bless and keep you,
May Hashem shine his countenance on you, and be gracious to you,
May Hashem lift his countenance to you and grant you peace.
Amen ...
