So how blessed am I? Four times a year I get to remember my children's birthdays in details only I know. Yesterday I spent the day remembering when Trey was born. There were lots of things about his birth that I inherently knew. I knew he was a boy...almost from the beginning. And on April 27th I knew he was coming. However, the good people at the hospital didn't know he was coming. In fact they told me to go home. I refused...(this began my tradition of being the worst maternity patient ever) So they sent me to the back parking lot to walk...walk until my water broke. And I did, and it did...a few hours later this sweet little boy came into our lives.......
Four sweet little spirits sailed into our lives over the years, different births for sure but the same in forever changing our lives...helping us grow up..making us into better people and giving us the opportunity to reach outside ourselves and love four amazing people....right from the beginning!
Happy Birthday Trey!
Isn't it amazing that we get to parent these spirits? God has a plan - and it's grand! Happy Birthday, Trey!
ReplyDeleteThank you....it's just trusting the plan isn't it?
ReplyDeleteYou sound like me. I have the tradition of talking about my sons' births on their birthdays. It's something only I can do. And like you said, details only us moms know.
ReplyDeleteI am sure moms view of the birth are different from the dads.
ReplyDeleteYou got good lookin young'ins.
When will those doctors and nurses learn to trust that a mother knows when the baby is coming!
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute son you have!!
