My dear friend, Angie had TRIPLETS yesterday!!!
Naturally conceived, I might add. I don't know why I always feel compelled to say that?! It is just such a miracle to me!!! Sent straight from heaven in to the arms of Angie and Brendan.
And if I use three exclamation marks often in this post it's because THERE ARE THREE HEALTHY HAPPY LITTLE BABIES HERE!!!
So happy for them.
And if that weren't enough...
I was HONORED to be present when Angie held them for the very first time!!!
I was there as a friend and wasn't even asked to bring my camera. But I did just in case. :)
But there were lots of nurses, and questions being answered with the Dr., and cords and machines. And LOTS of low lighting with teeny tiny little babies needing darkness and quiet time and healing time. So I took pictures from afar and tried not to be intrusive. So look at these from a friend viewpoint rather than a professional photographer viewpoint. I was just a friend whose heart was BURSTING with joy and love and happiness!
I won't post all of them. This is their personal story to share but I have to post some detail shots. Because I LOVE THE DETAILS!
Dad's wristbands for all 3 babies. #1 #2 and #3
Nurse. May I have the chart?

Angie and Brendan already have 2 boys. They chose not to find out the gender of the triplets until they were born! This is the look on a woman's face as she witnesses her husband holding their little girl for the very first time. There is just something about a daddy and a little girl.
Can you imagine counting 6o fingers and toes!
Welcome to the world Baby Grace, Baby Jack and Baby Emma!!!
So hard to be the momma. All you want to do is hold them and kiss them and love them but it's so hard with them all hooked up to the machines.
This next picture is how it all started for Angie and Brendan so many years ago...
And I know that it's what will get them through this next chapter too!
Congratulations to the Freeman Family! All 7 of you!
Dylan and Drew will be the best protectors ever of those sweet little sisters. And I know that Jack will have the best brother footsteps ever to follow in.
So happy that the babies are finally here and so healthy! We'll continue praying for their healing and growth and that they can come home soon. Big bold prayers for Jack. It had to be hard fighting those girls in there for space!
But THANK HEAVEN FOR LITTLE GIRLS!!!
Precious...Precious...Precious!!!
