Ella Mary Rain

So I'm guessing everybody already knows about our BEAUTIFUL little daughter, Ella Mary Rain. She came along on March 11, 11:08 pm. Another surPRISE and emergency c-section. At least this time I didn't go through a full labor again. I was delighted to find out I had a little girl after coming out of the grog of drugs...I couldn't believe it. A tiny little 6 pound 3 oz bundle and absolutely perfect.

Now it's two months later, and Ella is almost 14 pounds. She's a hungry little one who is doing her best to keep up with her brothers already. Right now she's sleeping peacefully next to me in her car seat. I'm working a bit here at the Imara office. Tomorrow is our last day...that is another post.

But I just wanted to put up a couple pictures of the THREE kiddos...so much fun.

Hope to post more about what's been happening in our lives. We leave Africa in two weeks from TODAY and I can't even wrap my head around it....

My biggest regret is that we haven't put enough time into keeping in touch and keeping everyone informed on what's happening - this blog is a case in point. Our life here has been rich, full, difficult, awesome, amazing, bizarre, and meaningful. Wish I had shared more about all that. Will try to at least post a few more times just to reflect a bit on it all.

But now my girl is crying and I should really pay attention to her.

Until next time...peace.
