My Life's Angel

The most important part of my life; was becoming a mother. When I was aware that I was pregnant, my like became more important. I felt excited, happy, nervous and joyful.

Now, I would have more responsibilities in my like; with a new baby it would teach me the true value of like, the love of a child.

When I was waiting for nine months it wasn't easy for me. My pregnancy was complicated; at moments I thought that I would never have this baby. But thanks to God my daughter was born and fortunately her birth was easy.

I felt the aches of birth and my daughter was born six hours later on the 12th of October at 6:45 am. The first thing I did was bless my daughter and hug her. Her reaction was a look and a smile. At that moment I knew that she was my Angel.

When my daughter was born; she weighed 5 pounds and measured 20.4 inches. She was born in the fall; on this day it was raining, but for us, it was the best day. We had a lot of visitors in the hospital and again when we arrived home.

We decided to name her Samantha because it was the name of my favorite TV program when I was small. She was born clean and healthy. The birth of my daughter is my best story!
