Baby born at 10:10:10 a.m. on 10/10/10

It was supposed to be such a lucky date that some couples arranged Caesarean sections especially so their babies would be born yesterday.

But Niamh Bond arrived on the tenth day of the tenth month of 2010 all by herself - and, just for good measure, at ten seconds after ten past ten as well.

She was born weighing just 3lb 7oz after being delivered naturally at eight weeks premature. A digital clock in the delivery suite recorded the time of birth.

Yesterday Niamh and her mother Keelie Hearne were both doing well as they recovered at Good Hope Hospital in Sutton Coldfield, West Midlands.

LOL even 3 lbs. 7 oz. = 10. Even the total ounces (55!) = 10 numerologically. :wow:

1. This is so cool

She's so tiny. Looks like a babydoll.

Awesome!

Couple's newborn girl a perfect '10' (10/10/10, 10:10 a.m.)

And there are MORE! L.A., Chicago, Little Rock, etc. etc. etc.! And a bunch of them were also born at 10:10, just in case there was any doubt!

That's just what turns up in a quick Google News search, which brings up U.S. stories first. I wonder how many babies were born all over the world on 10/10/10 at 10:10.

Seriously, I think this is just cosmically beautiful, and a big, BIG message to the world. I'm not saying these kids are going to be "special" (but wouldn't it be cool if they were!), but I think the timing of their births is one of those great cosmic giggles--one of those things that makes you stop and boggle for a moment, and realize that there's a whole lot more going on in the universe than we pay attention to on a daily basis. :hi:

5. There's a delightful, inspiring novel in here somewhere....

imagining the future of these children, and what connects them.

:hi:

6. KILLER idea!

Somebody oughta do that! ;)

7. I'm lookin' at you, kid....

;)

ON EDIT: Hey, there are so many writers here, wouldn't it be cool for a different person to take one child, based on what we know about him/her (birth location, sex, etc...fictionalize it, of course), and write their story?

Not me, but all you other peeps? That would be such a friggin cool collaboration!

:hi:

(I made my FB status that "I have no thoughts"; I'm going to quit checking in here so I can continue to have no thoughts...lolol)
