Submitted Entry: Aunt Kim

I am Elias' Auntie....Aunt Kim. I was lucky enough to be at the hospital the day he was born and I feel so blessed to have such an angel in my life. The first time I saw him, I could not help but cry tears of joy for he is such a beautiful baby!! To finally have him here where we can touch him and tell him how much we love him is a blessing in itself. But the true blessing is his strength...he is definitely a fighter. Michael was right when he said that Elias has his mommy's loooong legs, but he also has her strength! The first time he opened his eyes and looked up at me I just couldn't believe after all the anticipation, fear, and elation over the pregnancy that such a beautiful, wonderful baby would be here looking at me and filling my heart with happiness. I love him and his mommy and daddy unconditionally. We are all so blessed!!!
