“Oh, Mammy,” said Melanie, “the happiest days are
the days when babies come…
”
And so, today is the day that Aubrey’s little sister,
Renee and Will’s second daughter was born. She’s a beauty at 7 lbs.7 oz., 21
inches, with a head full of dark hair, like Renee’s. She seems to know exactly
how to be a baby since she pooped and pee’d all over everyone as she was born. This
baby is Marvin’s eighth grandchild, the baby of his youngest child.
As we were leaving Germantown Methodist Women’s
Pavilion, walking through the family waiting area, we heard the faintest of
chimes, thinking it to be a cell phone ring tone. Instead, the volume increased
just a bit and it became a tune: Brahms
Lullaby. The tune announced a birth. Smiles came to every face in the large
lobby area, including ours.
We immediately inferred that “when you hear that sound, somebody’s
baby has been born. A new life has graced our world.”
A baby is a true miracle of God and we got to hold
her today.
