Chloe Noelle was a beautiful and content little 4 month old when the NMC team was there in July. She had been at the Baby Centre for just 2 months. Although Chloe was not a Christmas baby, her middle name is sang often during the holidays. One of the favorite songs is called The First Noel. According to AI: The meaning of "Noel" primarily is Christmas from French/Latin roots. But some associate it with Hebrew/Aramaic by interpreting it as "No-El" (or "Nolad El")meaning "Born of God", combining "No" (born/child) and "El" (God) fitting the Christmas story of Jesus' birth. While Chloe is not the infant savior, she is truly a special gift from God. As we reflect the miracle of Jesus coming as a little baby, we are reminded of the absolute frailty of an infant. They are so dependent on someone to take care of them. Mary and Joseph were charged with Jesus' care. And we are charged with each of these precious little ones who come through our doors. We pray Chloe will come to know Jesus from a very early age. And will walk with Him all the days of her life!
