18 years ago on December 6, 1993 my life changed forever! I finally knew what love was and thats the day I started wearing my heart on my sleeve!
After 21 hours of long hard labor I delivered a 8lb 10 oz baby girl. Unlike most birth stories, I didnt get the fairytale delivery where she was born, Dr announces its a girl and lets me hold her. Instead I got "call the NICU and they tossed her into a bed where they started pounding on her little chest to get her to breathe! All I kept saying was "Is it a boy or a girl, is it ok" No one was answering. After about 25 minutes I finally got to hold my baby girl for 3 minutes before they told me they needed to take her done to the NICU to monitor her.
She spent the next 4 days down there and I was there most of the time too. Luckly the hospital didnt send me home with out her!
Now she is a very beautiful healthy 18 year old! Time sure does fly!
She stayed home from school on her birthday, the boys and I had gone and gotten balloons, her favorite danish and a Starbucks gift card and made the kitchen table all cute for her to wake up to. Britt, her best friend and myself went out and had sushi for lunch. Then she went and hung out with her friends the rest of the day!
She had a good 18th Birthday!!!
