I was so privileged to witness another miracle this week, the birth of my nephew Joshua. Words can never fully describe the feeling you have when you watch a birth, especially of some you love so dearly. It is utter happiness, bliss and contentment. I feel so blessed to have witnessed my sister complete her family. One girl and now one little boy. My sister was awesome, you could she the shear determination and love in her eyes as she worked to meet her baby Joshua.

I will not soon forget the moment he was born, he was placed on my sister's chest, the whole room filled with song as the nurses started singing Happy Birthday and as I joined in, I could hear my sister crying with joy. It was a magical moment, so pure and lovely.

What a blessing you are Joshua, I can't wait to watch you grow, to love you, play with you and help you grow into the man you will one day become.

Be good to your mama and daddy, they love you so. And as for that sweet, silly big sister of yours, have fun with her and know that she will always be proud of her baby brother.
