Seconds after her arrival...

When Noel first arrived and they put her on my chest it was the most tender, spiritual moment in our lives. When she was born there was such a peaceful feeling in the room. She cried for 5-10 seconds and then when they put her on my chest she stopped. We loved the name Noel originally and hoped she would look like the name, and when she was born we just knew because of how calm she was that her name would be Noel Christine Young.

Thank you for posting that video, Terie, it is the most touching moment I've ever seen. There is just so much hope in that moment, and seeing it just gave me hope that I had been desperately needing. Truly, everything is in the Lord's hands. We love you all so very much. :)
