A mother's Heart: Announcing the arrival of new baby

Oh that God would give every mother a vision of the glory and splendor of the work that is given to her when a babe is place in her bosom to be nursed and trained! Could she have but one glimpse in to the future of that life as it reaches on into eternity; could she look into it's soul to see its possibilities; could she be made to understand her own personal responsibility for the training of this child, for the development of its life, and for its destiny,--she would see that in all God's world there is no other work so noble and so worthy of her best powers, and she would commit to no others hands the sacred and holy trust given to her." -JR Miller

Announcing the arrival of new baby

Abigail Mary Dawes born 20 Feb 1.20am weighing 6 lbs 11 1/2 oz, 49cm long.

Thank you for all the prayers and thoughts, the birth was better than I imagined lol, though the contractions were pretty irregular so was only just ready when we got to the second stage!

My five beautiful children!
