A Baby’s Birth
December 30th, 2007, my sister Elena gave birth to Garrick Josh Lo. He’s adorable.
January 22nd, 2008, my other sister Ella gave birth to Maribelle Kayleene Quintos. She’s a beauty.
I was there for that long night on January 21st. I thought I’d stay for an hour or so, but then I couldn’t leave. I had to see it through. Though I didn’t get home until 4am, I didn’t feel any exhaustion. My fatigue was nothing compared to my sister’s.
It’s truly a wonder seeing a new person be brought into this world…
