Nicolette's Birthday today

I chose this photo purely to please her......I have so many photo's of her that I really love but she would be happy....guess why??
I remember the very moment I conceived, the Lord let me know that I was going to have another child and I can remember feeling PURE JOY ...you know that feeling that we all receive occasionally...I knew that she was a special Spirit, coming to our home and she surely was and is. My pregnancy was perfect not counting the constant morning sickness of course but I had no worries at all, when it was time to go into Hospital as she was to be my fourth baby to be brought on...My Tony was going to stay home to look after the little ones and my friend Honor was going to be with me...until it was nearly time to deliver.....unfortunately when I was asked should we ring Tony now...I was at a stage where I was not happy if you know what I mean.....now I look back I wish so much that someone had asked me earlier when I had all my witts about me......anyway he wasn't there and about half an hour later this most beautiful baby girl arrived....she had curly dark auburn hair and was the prettiest baby of all of ours...now please don't take any of this the wrong way, as she and the our other babies were all loved equally.
But wherever I went I was stopped and people would express how gorgeous she was .... particularly when her hair grew longer and her eyes became a vived bright blue.
She was the one who would want to hug and kiss all her family...might say that the girls in particular didn't enjoy so much affection...... particularly when it happened at school ....... she also would hear her Dad's Van pull up and would run and get his thongs and a beer !!!! he was not in the Church then..... I stopped the number two beer coming out.....ha ha.
She LOVED being with me, I could not even go to the hmmmm you know where, our Nic would want to come in or would stay outside to wait for me to come out....I can remember when she was real little that I would put her in the washing trolley to hang out the washing....she just needed to be close.
This morning when I woke, I was very mindful of it being Easter and I felt such gratitude for the Saviour and what He did for me and all of us..... I also remembered it was our Nic's birthday and thought how appropriate that she was celebrating something special on this the MOST IMPORTANT DAY OF ALL TIME. As she has so many attributes of  HIM we worship...we are blessed to have her in our lives.
