Our little Lucy joined our family December 10, 2009.
All 7 lb. 8 oz. and 20.5 inches of her.
She is the perfect addition.
I've been thinking over the past week about Lucy's transition to this world. Her birth was such a disruption to her existence. Without warning, she was removed from the comforts of the womb and plopped into a cold, bright and loud world.
She was no longer part of me, and endured the unpleasantness of newborn medical procedures.
It's just not a warm welcome for a daughter from heaven.
But she was handed first to her father, who introduced her to me. Held by arms that would love and protect her forever.

And welcomed home by two doting, loving, big sisters.
Welcome, Lucy Claire. You are home now.
She is part of a family who adores and loves her to no end, and will direct and pad her way through this world.

I've also felt sorry for these little ones. It really is a SCARY welcome to the world, isn't it?
What sweet pictures of a precious little girl. How lucky for her to be born in your family. Congratulations!!

I really love her name. Lucy would be at the top of my list of "little girl names", if I ever made such a list again.
congratulations to all of you on the new addition.
