I love it that I’ve hit this stage in my life where all of my friends are having babies. They’re everywhere! The most recent addition is Emma Grace Thornhill, daughter of Jay and Brandi Thornhill (and granddaughter to Pat and Susan Thornhill). This child is truly a little miracle baby and her whole family is thankful everyday that she is with them. Emma was born on May 30th and only weighed 2 lbs. 7 oz. Brandi developed pre-eclampsia so for the sake of her health and the baby’s, they made the decision to deliver Miss Emma almost 10 weeks early! It was frightening for all involved (and for all of us back here hearing about it), but Emma was definitely a fighter.
I was thrilled to find out from Susan that Jay and Brandi were going to be visiting from Tennessee over Labor Day weekend. As soon as I found out, I marked it on my calendar. I was not going to miss meeting Emma (and seeing her parents :-)). As you will see, Emma is beautiful and perfect. She’s still so tiny, weighing in at slightly over 5 lbs., but you can tell she’s strong. I can’t wait to see how she grows and progresses over the next few months. I’m sure all of us will be in awe.
Thank you for the visit. We had a wonderful time!
