A beautiful bundle of joy was born Wednesday in Tennessee on what was otherwise a somber day in American history.

Christina Brown was born on 9/11 at 9:11 p.m., and weighed 9 pounds, 11 ounces.

Her parents, Cameteione and Justin Brown, were overjoyed to welcome their stunning baby girl into the world at Methodist Germantown Le Bonheur.

Christina's sisters Ameriyah and Anjeah were also there to greet their little sister.

She was born on the 18th anniversary of the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks.
