Whirlwind

It's been a whirlwind week,

anticipated promises fulfilled, precious blessings arrived.

My baby sister a few days past her expected day went in for a checkup and on her way in, went into hard labor, on my birthday. 

My mother, my sister and I sat close, held hands and prayed in the waiting room,

and that evening, she was snuggling her baby girl.

The next morning, 

I reached my due date and the doctor determined it was time for my baby boy to have a birthday...

was in labor by the time they checked me in,

held him just about three hours later.

My sweet Judah Taylor

was here.

His name means

"I will praise the Lord"

and we shall along with him.

As I said before,

it's been the week of a whirlwind of blessings.
