A baby changes everything

This week I got a phone call I've been dreaming of for two long years. You see it has been two years now since my brother and my SIL An, and my husbands brother have gotten married. For the last two years I have been " Wishin' and hopin' and thinkin' and prayin' Plannin' and dreamin' each night" that I would get the call that I would be an aunt for the first time. Well that call came very early Wednesday morning. My baby brother called to tell me the wonderful news, that this spring I will indeed be an auntie! I am yet to stop grinning and praising God for this little miracle growing inside my sister. I can't wait to see my brother and An as parents. my brother is a great uncle and An is amazing with kids. oh fun story the first time i met An we were coming over to my parents for brunch to meet her and to get our boys who had spent the night. when we go close to my parents house it was surrounded by fire trucks. the alarm clock in my brothers room had started an electrical fire in the wall. had An not been there my brother might not be here today, as he was asleep at the time. if that doesn't make her amazing enough she also brought my kids out of the house and kept an eye on them while my parents talked to the rescue workers. clearly i think she is amazing:) did i mention she bakes too? For anyone that has met them you know that God designed them perfectly to complement each other, so I can only imagine how awesome this little peanut will be!
This is going to be one very well loved and spoiled kid, she(my guess), is already prayed over daily by her family, her family that consists of 4 big cousins all boys, 3 aunts, 3 uncles, 2sets of grandparents, great grandparents, and many more extended family already in love with this little peanut, God is SO Good!

Dear precious little one,
         You are so so tiny and yet already covered in love and prayer. God has created you for a special reason, I know this is true because he tells us so in Jeremiah 139:13-18 "For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place, when I was woven together in the depths of the earth. Your eyes saw my unformed body;all the days ordained for me were written in your book    before one of them came to be. How precious to me are your thoughts, God! How vast is the sum of them! Were I to count them, they would outnumber the grains of sand. when I awake, I am still with you." Before any of us knew you were to be, Our father already knew every detail about you, your name the color of your eyes, even the numbers of hairs the will be on your head. Jesus loves you little one, and so do I, grow strong and then as the ice of winter melts away and the crocus' and daffodils start to peak through the cold ground and remind us of new life. Then too will we be able to great you and celebrate your new life. 
I love you,
Aunt MKAYL
