“I remember savoring this moment with fear in my heart not knowing how delivery might unfold. I’m not a negative person but I couldn’t help but fear the possibility of not making it back home to these guys or of any other possible misfortune,” she admitted. “If you only knew how much I fear delivery. If you know of all the possibilities during delivery then you too would understand.”
Iya then pointed out her mother in the background, revealing that she, too, had fears about the delivery.
“Then there’s the lady in the back, my mum, who I know has fears of her own about the delivery,” she continued.
Reflecting on her experience, she expressed gratitude for Anya’s safe arrival, noting, “So to be on the other side of it already, seeing and holding Anya and knowing we’ll be reunited with her very excited siblings soon brings me so much relief and gratitude.”
“God truly has been so gracious and faithful and I can only hope that I live a life that will honor Him. Will never take any of this for granted coz I see His grace in each of these tiny faces,” she added.
Iya gave birth to Anya on February 11.
