Yup... she's born!! It was an awesome feeling to experience. I never thought I will cry when the doctor placed her on my breast. I thought those are just in the movies... But she was so... breathtakingly.. beautiful. To finally see her and hold her is just awesome. We decided to named her Callista Ribka Kosasih.... most beautiful and captivating. She is to me... ^_^. She's born on the 12th October 2007, at 1.48pm. Our prayers are for her to be just like we named her... beautiful in the sight of The Lord and others.

I can just stare at her for hours, watching her sleep. She's really cute with those chubby cheek and tiny mouth.. When she's full, she will pout her bottom lip and closed her mouth soooo... tightly, trying to tell me, "Enough Mommy..." She was born weighing 2975 gms... tiny but big on character! Amen!! ^_^

Having a baby is real new experience. One you can't really understand until you are actually going through it. Waking up in the middle of the night, every two hours or so, is not about not getting enough sleep, but about making sure she's alright, she's not hurt, she's breathing ok, she's not hungry, she's not feeling lonely, does she need me?,.. all those things going through me head when I hear a slight noise from her.

Off course, it's tiring and sometimes you almost fell asleep whilst feeding her in the middle of the night... but it's really worth it.. and knowing that she's sleeping with a full tummy, enough warmth and content, is a secure and happy feeling.

It's a journey both Gabriel and I are obviously new at, and truly... it's a journey to the unknown... yet it is wonderful, exciting and most rewarding...
