Worth the Wait

One of my best friends from high school is a very talented musician, and she recently wrote a song inspired by our experience waiting for a baby. She gave me a copy of the lyrics with my baby shower gift, and then she played and sang the song for me on our piano after the other shower guests left. Amazing gift, huh?

Click here to go to her blog, where you can listen to the song and read the lyrics. She is so talented.

Little Noah was definitely worth the wait!
