Just Arrived: Eliana Grace. Eliana Grace. 6 lbs 11.5 oz. Born 11/19/2013 at 3:12a. Melissa started contractions at 10pm. We thought it was going to take a while before needing to go in to the birth center but at 2am-ish Melissa started feeling like the baby started pushing. Realizing that this was different from the previous contractions we rushed to the birth center 30 minutes away going over the speed limit and passing a few red-lights. We arrived at 2:45pm and the baby was born shortly after at 3:12am!

http://delightingingrace.blogspot.com/2013/10/season-by-season.html
Tuesday, October 1, 2013. Great is thy faithfulness, Lord, unto me. Morning by morning I wake up to find. The power and comfort of God’s hand in mine. Season by season I watch Him, amazed. In awe of the mystery of His perfect ways. All I have need of, His hand will provide. He’s always been faithful to me. Thankfully ( oh so thankfully. The "not so great days" have been much fewer and farther between than I'd feared. That's often true, I guess, that anticipation is worse than reality. In other happy news.
