NASHVILLE, TENN.<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 Today, country powerhouse\u00a0Lauren Alaina\u00a0<\/strong>and husband Cam Arnold announced the birth of their first child, a baby girl named Beni Doll Arnold. The new parents welcomed their daughter on Wednesday, June 11 in Nashville. Alaina celebrated Beni’s arrival on\u00a0social media today<\/u><\/a>, penning a poignant letter to her newborn:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe right words are hard to find to describe how parts of my heart that I didn’t even knew existed were unlocked at 8:44 AM when they laid you on my belly for the first time. I will never be the same,\u201d Alaina<\/strong> writes. \u201cYou, to your dad and me, are absolute perfection. We are honored God chose us to be your parents. Thank you to everyone for all the love, prayers and support for our precious daughter.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A touchingly autobiographical new song,\u00a0\u201c<\/strong>Heaven Sent<\/u><\/strong><\/a>\u201d<\/strong>\u00a0was\u00a0released today in honor of Beni. Co-written by Alaina, labelmate\u00a0HARDY\u00a0<\/strong>and Ben Johnson, the song reflects the Grand Ole Opry member’s newest chapter of first-time motherhood and the purpose a new life can bring to a family after losing a loved one. The song, highlighting Alaina’s \u201csoulful, expressive vocal\u201d (American Songwriter<\/em>), was written within weeks of her beloved father’s passing, coupled with finding out she was expecting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI have a little surprise for everyone. To celebrate the most precious miracle on Earth, I have decided to release a song I wrote about my daughter,\u201d says Alaina. \u201cWe learned she was coming in a time of deep sadness after the loss of my daddy. I wasn’t sure when I would share ‘Heaven Sent,’ but watching my own husband become a father the last couple of days has made me want to share it with you now. She came just before Father’s Day \u2013 my first without my own father. A day that will forever be hard to me, but I now have a new and perfect reason to celebrate it: Beni’s daddy, my sweet and steady husband. Beni is truly a gift from God that my old man sitting up there in Heaven Sent.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cHeaven Sent\u201d follows \u201cAll My Exes (feat. Chase Matthew)<\/u><\/a>,\u201d which gave Alaina the biggest first-week streaming numbers of her career. Earlier this year, she released a similarly sassy \u201cHousehold<\/u><\/a>,\u201d called a \u201cSong You Need to Know\u201d by\u00a0Rolling\u00a0Stone<\/em>, and the softhearted, sentimental \u201cThose Kind of Women<\/u><\/a>\u201d that\u00a0Billboard<\/em>\u00a0deems \u201ca tender ballad.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Embarking on a new chapter in music and in life, Alaina has discussed such topics with endearing\u00a0candor on\u00a0The Kelly Clarkson Show<\/u><\/em><\/a>,\u00a0Off the Vine with Kaitlyn Bristowe<\/u><\/em><\/a>,\u00a0Amazon’s Country Heat Weekly podcast<\/u><\/a>,and\u00a0Diving In Deep with Sara Evans<\/u><\/em><\/a>, among other interviews. Fans can also see Alaina, who \u201cutilizes her likeness\u00a0to encourage authenticity\u201d (Forbes<\/em>), via her web series\u00a0LA Lately<\/strong><\/em>\u00a0where she captures true-to-life conversations with some of her closest friends. Recent episodes include guests like\u00a0Trisha Yearwood, Chase Matthew, Russell and Kailey Dickerson and more.
