Sorry we haven't been on in a while. With the holidays and such it has been a tremendously busy time around here. Here are a few updates:
13 years ago, around Thanksgiving time:
I was ready to pop with our first baby. I was well over a week overdue and the doctors were hoping that I would just go into labor on my own. Well I didn't. I guess he wanted to cook longer, lol. They finally scheduled me for inducement at Kennestone Hospital, in Marietta, Georgia, On November 26th, 1993. I went in about 7 am and they started the pitocin. They were thinking an average baby, from what they could feel. Well, 8 hours later (not bad for the first baby) and 16 days late, with an epidural, no less, we welcomed our first son, Lover of History.
They whisked him away (before the whole LDR/Birthing Rooms) to the nursery. My parents and in-laws left with the baby, including my husband. My mom comes running back about 20 minutes later to let me know that the 7.5-8 lb little boy they thought we had was acutally 9 lbs. 1 oz and 22 inches long!!! I had the stitches to prove it, lol. What a joyous time but with a first baby, we didn't know what to expect.
Here is a picture with myself, my husband and our new baby, in 1993.
The Lord has blessed us with a well rounded, loving, compassionate, empathetic and Godly young man that is headed towards Biblical Manhood. He is a blessing to all and is VERY smart, indeed. We are so proud of him. So proud of the person and young man he is becoming and so proud that God allowed us to be his parents. It truly is a blessing. We love you very much!!!
