Happy Half-Birthday, Natalie!

I can’t believe our girl is 6 months old already! Natalie is truly a joy, as you can see:

Okay!

Funny Face

Pretending to fly?

Yay!

Natalie’s half-birthday also falls on our wedding anniversary—Happy 4th Anniversary to us!

Today I’m reminded about how the number 7 keeps popping up in our lives…Normally I don’t take much stock in lucky numbers or coincidences, but take a look:

Chris’ birthday is 7/8/77
My birthday is 8/7/78
Our anniversary is 6/7/03 (I know, we planned that one!)

And Natalie, who has 7 letters in her name, was born on December 7, in room 7, weighing 7 pounds, 6 ounces! Shucks, if only she’d been 7 lbs, 7 oz…maybe the scale was off by on ounce. I doubt this phenomenon really means anything, other than it makes important dates easier to remember. If we forget, we know at least that there’s got to be a 7 in there somewhere!

    7 is a pretty sacred number by many different groups of peoples…….in auyruvedic and buddhist thought, there are 7 chakras (energy vortexes) in the body (some people work on the premise that there are more above the head…..).

    I guess the number 7 is more important than I thought…

    7 has always been special to me too, born in the 7th month with 7 letters in my name. Also, my mother’s birthday was April 7.
