The Joy of Motherhood...

Oh well, my absence from this blog in the last couple of weeks was not without a reason. And it’s my pleasure to announce to you (my dear blog readers) that I took time off to have a baby! Actually, my first child, and it happened in the 10th year of my marriage!  How awesome!

I am so so thankful to God for the whole experience of being a mom. I agree that there is the lack of sleep, official sick days and other inconveniences that come with pregnancy and childbirth. But I also agree that this added "job role" comes with exceeding joy and fulfillment.

I have always being a passionate lover of children, and for years I have voluntarily cared for other people’s children, including the ones with special needs.  And when mine did not appear to be forthcoming many years after being married to a most wonderful man, I chose to place my absolute trust in the knowledge that God will eventually make it happen for me someday…

And on the 5th of October 2014, I was delivered of a precious and adorable baby girl! We’ve named her “Tehilla,” a Hebrew word which means praise, in honour of the Almighty God who made it possible for me to experience the joy of motherhood after many years of hope and expectation.


Here are some photos with Tehilla…


Here's a word of encouragement to anyone who may be in that position of waiting for a baby: NEVER EVER GIVE UP YOUR HOPE AND TRUST IN GOD...Be blessed!
