Babies and Cakes…

Our good friends Ryan and Anna have finally given birth to their first child, whom they’ve named Bethany Hope. I’m really looking forward to meeting her soon. Congratulations guys!

Oh and I’ve just made a great chocolate cake with real chocolatey chunks in! Kirsty’s very happy. :D

Surreal Resuscitation

BabyAnne

Yesterday I was on a 1st Aid refresher course. There were 9 other people in the group - all of them women. When we got to learning baby resuscitation all of us were given a ‘training baby’ and then together we practised the 30 chest compressions, rhythmically pumping the baby’s chests. To help us keep time (100BPM) the instructor suggested we sing Nelly The Elephant as we went.

Halfway through, I stopped and looked up. All 9 women were totally engrossed in their task of gently pounding plastic babies, while cheerfully singing along to ‘Nelly’. The whole time there was this background hiss of air being squeezed in and out of small plastic mouths which only created a percussion to the song.

I have to go back next week…

Heart Attack Baby back from dead!

A baby boy who was pronounced dead after a heart attack came back to life 30 minutes later as he lay in his grieving parents’ arms.

There’s no mention of God or Christianity in the article, but it certainly looks like His handiwork to me!
