Isabella Marie McNamara-Sanders
Hi everyone,
Thank you all for your warm wishes. Christina & Isabella are doing great. I finally got to hold her last night. She's teeny! 6lbs, 8oz. and 19 & 3/4 inches.
She has a big name for a little girl. McNamara is Christina & my son's last name and Sanders is Christina's boyfriend Terrell's (I call him T) name.
Lots of family came to meet her even T's family who he is estranged from. He is close to his great Gram who raised him for much of his life. My ex-husband, Eddie's Dad came & he finally met Joshua who was able to be cordial and shook his hand even though Joshua has much resentment because of how my ex treated Eddie when Ed was growing up before he got sober. Now that he's sober he wants a relationship with Josh (Christina's OK with the ex - they've been seeing each other for a while now), but Josh has been reluctant. As I said to the ex its a start anyway. Nothing like a sweet baby to bring folks closer.
As always, some of the experience was bittersweet. Christina is heartbroken because Ed's not here. And as she said people keep saying, "but he's with you" and she says. "so to speak". I said, "No its true, he's not physically here and that's hard." So as usual she cried, I cried, Josh cried. But its OK. Isabella is safe with her mommy & Daddy and somehow Ed is a part of it all.
Heavenly Father, thank you for Isabella's safe arrival and Christina's safe delivery. Please help these young parents to do a great job with her. Keep her safe. In Jesus Name, Amen.
Hi Eddie, well what do you think of your little girl having a little girl? Wow , right? I wish you were here. Love always and forever, mom. Miss you!! xoxo
Have a good day - love to all.
