Day 1 after Faith's birth

It's been a day and 8 hours since Faith was born and gone. I've been discharged from hospital and am resting at home. Doctors have given me rest orders for 2 weeks, and a follow-up visit after that.

It is truly well and now, that I realise I'm starting to miss Faith. I see all the differences in my life compared to when she was with me. I miss her little kicks and tumbles.

I cherish my son more now...children are a truly a gift from God that we should never neglect.

My mum saw Faith after she was born. Grandma says Faith had long limbs and a tan complexion, like her daddy, and guessed if she was well and grew up, she would be taller than her brother.

I took everything in good stride while I was warded. Perhaps being at the hospital gave me a sense of surreality. The moment I woke up I was a little reluctant to leave the hospital. I felt closer to her while I was there. Now I hold her in my heart.

I wait for my sunny days to be back.
