Kids Wish Network would like to send a big “congratulations” to pop superstar Beyonce Knowles and her husband, rapper Jay-Z. According to several news stories and web postings, on the night of January 7th, the couple welcomed baby girl Blue Ivy into the world! Celebrity friends and devoted fans have been blogging and tweeting their excitement for Beyonce and her husband all weekend long. Here’s why we think the singing sensation is going to be a great mom:

Proud new parent, Beyonce Knowles, has assisted Kids Wish Network in granting some very special wishes. In 2011, the music icon met with Genysis, a teen from Georgia battling a blood disorder called sickle cell anemia. She attended a live concert in Central Park and was brought back stage for a meet-and-greet with her absolute favorite star. Beyonce also gave Genysis a gift bag, signed autographs, and posed for pictures.

Previously, in 2007, the singer met with young fan Xavier and his family. Xavier, also from Georgia, suffers from an extreme complication of sickle cell disease known as CVA (cardiovascular accident). Both families spoke of the kindness Beyonce showed to them as their wishes came true.

Again, Kids Wish Network wishes to congratulate both Beyonce and Jay-Z and also send a very warm welcome to their new daughter, Blue Ivy Carter!

A Strawberry Shortcake Wish: Recently I began working on a wish for a sweet little girl named Madison who lives in North Carolina. She had been in a serious car accident which left her with life-threatening injuries and her only wish was to have a Strawberry Shortcake bedroom makeover. http://ping.fm/VELMc

From the Desk of Shelley Breiner – As I sit here at my desk, surrounded by memories, I canâ€™t help but reminisce about when my husband Mark and I first started this charity. All of these years have been amazing and when I think about what weâ€™ve accomplished for so many children, all I can do is smile and say, â€œWow!â€ http://ping.fm/0jI7K

Jennifer meets Marc Jacobs in NYC – I recently was able to plan a wish for a young lady named Jennifer from California who is recovering from Hodgkins Lymphoma. Jennifer wished to meet Marc Jacobs, the world famous fashion designer. We soon had confirmation that her wish would take place in New York City. http://ping.fm/pxxQP

A Little Ditty About Kids Wish Network: Kids Wish Network is the place,
where you will see a friendly face.
Every morning you walk in,
D. will greet you with a grin.
Down the hall just a few steps,
Alicia is seated at her desk.
If someone calls who only speaks Spanish,
Alicia can take it, so please donâ€™t panic.
Kathleen is the bearer of various treats…. http://ping.fm/Lf8q8
