Today at 7:18 am (Indian time) Moriah M arrived into this world. We went to the hospital on Thursday night at 8:15 pm to be admitted because the doctor had ordered an induction to take place. By the time the doctor came to start the process, God had broken through and answered the prayers of his people. Lindsey had started dilating and the doctor said "Let's wait until dawn before we do anything medically". By the time dawn arrived 5:15, Lindsey was ready to go to the labor room because Moriah was coming!!!! From 5:15-7:18 Lindsey had some very intense pain...only a gas for pain control, no epidural or shots in India unless really pressed for. Lindsey is my hero....The doctor, Dr. Uma Ram and her nurses were great. Moriah was completely healthy and happy...PRAISE THE LORD!!!!! Moriah is 6.6 pounds and very beautiful. Tonight Lindsey is resting with Moriah and her mother at the hospital. Either Emily or I had to come home and I decided to come home to allow more Mother, Daugther, granddaughter bonding...especially because Emily flew from America for this special time. She leaves on the 27th of this month. Dr. Ram has said that Lindsey and Moriah will come home tomorrow. Moriah will receive the standard vaccinations plus one for TB, which is common in India. We praise Jesus for such a great miracle (life and Moriah's health and safe/normal delivery)...Please thank God specifically tonight for this answer to our prayers:)

Moriah's beautiful! Bill and I enjoyed the video. She is so alert (probably because a natural birth-or her extremely bright parents!!) for a newborn - what a cutie. She is a precious gift and we're happy for you and Lindsey and Emily too! Thanks for sharing. I like Joy for a middle name if you're still looking! Much love from Bill and Carole
