I titled this post "Our Magic Number 7 Baby" for several reasons. First, she is the last baby for our family so 7 kids is our perfect number. Second, 7 is kind of magical/spiritual number. Third, she is so overwhelming loved by all of her siblings and her parents and her smile and laugh are magical. She has the ability to chase away any sadness with those two "secret weapons." We haven't been able to get her smile on camera yet. As soon as the camera/phone comes out, she has to stop and stare at it. She is such a people person. She loves to just watch and observe you and she loves to jabber at you. From a much younger age than any of my other kiddos, she wanted to be able to communicate. It hasn't been that easy for her. You can see the wheels turning in her head through those sweet eyes. It sure makes us wish that we could understand what she is trying to tell us and it reminds us that these little ones must know so much about the heaven which they just left. If only they could share with us their great wisdom. Perhaps we are not prepared to hear all of those amazing things.
Rachel at 7 weeks
