Last year Katie was really struggling with living in New Hampshire, but mostly with trying to get her baby here. After years of feeling like they had another baby and pursuing every option and feeling it was wrong in the end, Katie and Ben were led to In Vitro. Tiff, Audrey and I went and visited her just before they started that process. It was a wonderful trip, one I will never forget.
Now a year later she is holding her sweet baby in her arms. It makes me so happy! Jonah asked me why I was so happy for her. I explained to him that this is something Katie has wanted for years and I have been praying every step of the way that it would work out and I can't describe how happy it makes me to see Katie at the end of this horrible battle that she has been fighting for years.
Kenzie was born yesterday afternoon. She is healthy, happy and beautiful. I have been able to watch the struggle that Ben and Katie have gone through to get each one of their children here. Each child's journey here was different, but it is so great to see Kiara, Boston and now Kenzie make it into their parent's arms.
I was so excited to go over to the hospital today and meet her. She is so sweet and tiny. I loved holding her and visiting with Katie and Ben.
One thing for sure, this little girl is sure loved!
In true Katie and Ben form they couldn't let this go too smoothly. Ben tore his Achilles tendon on Friday morning and has a meeting with a surgeon on Monday. As usual, they take the curve ball in stride and look at the positive side of everything. Hopefully Ben will be up and walking around again soon so they can all enjoy this time with Kenzie!
