I was always too shy to post a comment on Eliot's blog, but this good news is certainly comment-worthy. The heartiest congratulations to your whole family - Mama, Papa and Big Brother Eliot! This little girl is already the luckiest in the land! Sending much love and prayers!
Congratulations Matt and Ginny!!! Wow, a little girl for you to love, how precious. I am so happy for you and thanking the Lord for an amazing birth. I am looking forward to meeting her in pictures and praying for you guys as you bask in the blessings of a great God. May your hearts overflow with PURE JOY.
Can't help but notice that she shares Eliot's initials. How precious she already is and we have yet to see her! The biggest heartfelt praise and blessings sent your way!
Congratulations! We are thrilled to hear of Hazel's arrival and look forward to meeting her in person. God is so good and we join you today in praising His name without ceasing. We love all of you!

Good Luck and Congrats!!
Congratulations on the birth of your wonderful daughter. I just saw Eliot's story for the first time yesterday on Oprah and was thrilled when I saw that you were expecting again. I have read the entire blog on Eliot's site and look forward to going through the rest of your journey with you here on this one. Best Wishes and God Bless Always
I saw your story on a parenting board I go to, for the first time yesterday, I cried my eyes out, You are the strongest people I have read about. Congrats on the new baby girl!!

I just saw the show on Oprah last night and was very touched by your story. I was so HAPPY to hear about your new baby girl, what an angel she is!! Congratulations to you both! -Karol/ San Francisco, CA-
Congratulations on the birth of your beautiful daughter. I just finished watching your lovely youtube video. I wasn't as strong as you both were when I lost my child. May God continue to bless your family.
Dear Matt and Ginny, After watching your interview on Oprah on Tuesday, I was compelled to find the video on Youtube to show my fiance'. We both cried when we watched it. At church the next night, our church family said a prayer for your baby girl, little did we know that you had already given birth to her. I pray that you three are all well and the memory of her big brother will always live strong and faithful in all you guys do. God Bless and keep us updated on the family! Thank you for sharing your story! From a mom in northwest Tennessee, Julie.
Congratulations on your baby girl. Isn't the Lord good? I was deeply touched by your video dedication to your son Eliot. I have a 4 month old son and I wa feeding him and crying while watching the Oprah episode. True Christians are known by the way they handle grief and I am so thankful that your story has been told. Your family is a shining light in this world. thank you.
congratulations Matt and Ginny. Hazel is lucky to have 2 wonderful parents. I have 2 children and my 3rd recently passed away on Sept 26/08 in utero (16 weeks). We were on the road to genetic counselling and knew there was an issue from the beginning. I want to say I was very moved and felt connected to you when i saw 99 Balloons. Thank you for sharing so much of yourselves. It helps me to overcome some issues I am trying to deal with.
Yesterday, my pastor shared your story about Eliot during her message. Needless to say, there were quite a few wiping away tears. I just had to come and find out about Eliot's new sibling--a girl! How thrilled all of you must be.
I continue to be amazed by God's amazing Grace. Thank you so much for sharing your story.
