A Miracle Baby

Danielle Lorraine "Dani" Shaffer
My best friend since high school, Lori Miller, (right) and her husband, Dan, became grandparents last weekend. Although all babies are miracles, this was especially so because it seemed that health problems would not allow Rachel to have children. Rachel's husband CJ is standing next to Lori. That's Rachel's brother Donnie in the green shirt; he and his wife, Erin, are church planters. Lori provided the details in an e-mail message I received today,

"Danielle Lorraine Shaffer arrived on Friday, June 15 at 9:00 pm. She was born by c-section after 12 hours of labor, but both mom and baby are doing fine. Daddy CJ is doing okay, also. She weighed 8lbs 6oz, 19 1/4 in long."
I don't know who took the photo, so I can't give the appropriate credit to the photographer.
