I have written this by hand in a journal, but find that I cannot keep up with entries the way that I would like. The neuropathy in my hands make my writing difficult to read at times, so I am going to try and enter the entries in this blog.
You were born today - one of God's greatest gifts to me and to all of us who have waited months for your arrival. I had the honor of being with your mommy and daddy in the hospital birthing room. You are so beatiful - and you are so loved. Your mommy did a great job with the labor and your daddy was right there supporting her efforts.
You are four weeks early - and you had a little trouble breathing so you will stay in the special care nursery for a while. They need to watch mommy's headache meds also to make sure they are out of your system. You were hooked up to lots of things the first few days and your mommy doesn't like to look at those pictres, so I'm choosing one where she is holding you. You have a head full of hair sweet baby!!!
I hope to write in this journal often and someday you fill find, read and cherist these memories as I have cherished you. You carry me back to days when Wendy and Kelley were little - the times of endless things to do but oh such joy. It seems like yesterday, but is has been a very long time.
