Tyler Ann is 20, today! (birth story included)
Birth Stories . CEF (child evangelism fellowship) . Family
It is hard to believe 20 years ago, today, I became a mom. After a healthy 40 weeks of pregnancy, I gave birth to my first child. She came out kicking and screaming. Letting us know from day one that she was a determined one. And even though she was born with three holes in her heart, she has never let anything get in her way of accomplishing her goals in life.
Tyler’s birth story:
Tyler was my first pregnancy and I really had no idea of what to expect. I had “morning” sickness all the time. I was a petite 103 pounds when I got pregnant, and even though I was nauseous all the time, I managed to gain 25 pounds during the pregnancy, which I lost most of after giving birth. I attended one childbirth class, and never went back because it was too weird. I found out I had gestational diabetes and was put on a high protein diet. The pregnancy was actually pretty easy.
I didn’t know what contractions would feel like, so I went into the hospital a week before my due date thinking I was having labor. I was sent home. I did not have an assigned doctor but went to the women’s clinic and often saw different people each visit. So, when I finally went into the hospital with actual labor, I was assigned a student doctor. I was told I needed an epidural, I had also been given an MMR vaccine during my pregnancy (which I didn’t realize I didn’t need. I did everything they told me, trusting them to know better than myself.
The epidural made one side of my body super heavy and the other side didn’t take at all. It was a very awful feeling. I was only in labor a little over six hours, and I pushed three times and had a beautiful 8 pound 3 oz. baby girl. Sadly, the student doctor took forever to stitch one and a half stitches. It took hours for my feeling to come back in my one side. Baby TylerAnn was born with several holes in her heart and was sent home on a monitor. No one helped me with breastfeeding, and I went home. I took my baby girl home, and then took her to the clinic pediatrician and they gave her shots. I told them I was having some issues nursing her, so they sent us to le lecha league. I went to a meeting and saw older children breastfeeding in public, and felt very uncomfortable. So, I never went back.
I didn’t know anyone who could help me with breastfeeding, so my mom told me to call my aunt. She told me how to express the milk and how to feed my baby. For the most part, we figured things out as we went.
By the time she was five, she knew everything, or at least she thought she did. She said to me several times a day, ” I know, mom.” And gave me a look that said, ” I don’t need you to tell me.”
She has always had a love for the Word of God, and telling others His Gospel message. Before she had even started school, she was leading complete strangers to Truth in Jesus Christ.
School was a challenge for her, but that never stopped her from working hard.
By the time she was ten she knew that she was going to live her whole life for the Lord.
By the time she was 13, she was challenging her dad and I on our beliefs and walk of faith.
By, the time she was fifteen, she she was going out with CEF and changing lives for the LORD.
She has grown changed and become one of my very best friends. She has a beautiful voice that she uses to worship YHVH. She is a leader. She is a gentle and loving woman of God.
I am blessed to be her mother.
TYLER ANN HIRN, born April 28th, 1996.
Named after her Uncle Tyler, who is a patient and compassionate man.
Named after Anna from Luke chapter 2 verses 36-38,
“And there was a prophetess, Anna the daughter of Phanuel, of the tribe of Asher. She was advanced in years and had lived with her husband seven years after her marriage, and then as a widow to the age of eighty-four. She never left the temple, serving night and day with fasting and prayers. At that very moment she came up and began giving thanks to God, and continued to speak of Him to all those who were looking for the redemption of Jerusalem.”
Also, named after her grandma Lisa Ann and aunt Rebecca Ann, who are kind, generous, and love others without judgement.

Things to know as you visit our site
We are Bible believing, scripture only people. We love to learn about the Hebrew roots of our faith. We believe it is important to not add or subtract from the Divine Word of God. The compiled scriptures that agree with one another and have no contradiction is the 66 books of what is commonly referred to as the Christian Bible, or the Holy Bible.
These writings were originally written by men inspired by God. They were written in the language of the writers and readers of the original documents. Many of the original documents have been lost, but God’s Word is eternal and remains. Therefore, it is important to us to study, learn, and consider the culture, history, and language of the original writers of the scriptures.
In our studies we have learned that the true name of God is Yehovah, and His son, our Messiah, is named Yeshua. Therefore, as you read our posts we will use the Hebrew names of God and our Messiah.
