Singing This Baby Into the World by Katie
Do you remember the birth story of Baby U? We sang this baby into the world. It is easily one of my top three births. If you didn't get to read it then you can click on the link below. Once you have read the birth story come on back and read baby Jake's big sister Kate's perspective of the birth. Our birth team just love this whole family. Katie is very special. Such a loving young lady who absolutely adores her baby brother.

Dear Miss Jill,
Here is my story of Jake's birth--
I was sleeping in my room when my grandma woke me up and told me that my mom was in labor. It was just light outside. I was really excited and I couldn't wait to see my baby brother. I didn't even think about breakfast. Right away, I was happy crying because my mom was having Jake.
I came into my dad and mom's room in my robe and pajamas. I apologized to Miss Wendy because I hadn't even gotten dressed or done my hair or even brushed my teeth! I saw that my mom was in labor. I said, "Good morning!”, but she was too busy to reply.

I sat with my grandma then Miss Wendy came over and gave me plastic gloves and a newborn baby hat. She said that I could help! I looked at my grandma in astonishment. I went over to my mom and I got my mom cool towels to put on her neck and head. I heard Miss Jill and my dad saying to her, “You can do it! You are strong! Christ is with you!” I stood by Miss Courtney and Miss Wendy. Everyone was singing and I sang too. I could see Jake’s head! I was overjoyed. I told everyone that I needed a “crying break” because I was so happy. I went over to my room and closed the door and sat on my chair and cried for a minute and thanked God, then I opened the door and went back to the parent’s room to finish the birth. When he came out, they put Jake on momma’s chest. I didn’t get to see him do the breast crawl because I was busy getting breakfast.
I was so happy that everyone was there. The midwives were all my friends. They love me and they hugged me whenever I needed a hug. I am so happy for my brother. I love him very much.
I want to thank Miss Jill for having me as a guest blogger. I love everyone who got to read this blog.
Katie, age 8 ½
