Cradle of Vitality
Enchantment
Whenever you gain life, you may pay 
. If you do, put a +1/+1 counter on target creature for each 1 life you gained.
Naya's trees grow tall and sturdy. Their foliage intertwines to form dewcups, rainwater pools where the elves gather to celebrate life.

Cradle of Vitality triggers just once for each life-gaining event, whether it’s 1 life from Deathgreeter or 8 life from Soul’s Grace. You pay the cost just once, but the targeted creature will get a number of counters equal to the amount of life you gained.

You choose a target when the ability triggers. You don’t choose whether to pay
until the ability resolves. - 2014-02-01
If multiple creatures you control with lifelink deal damage simultaneously, each instance is a single life-gain event and the ability will trigger separately for each of them.
