Kennedy,
You are here!!! You were born at 2:28 PM on October 11th 2008 by C-Section. I went in for my induction on October 10 and after trying to get my cervix to move all night and half the next day, Dr. Sikand decided that we were both better off to go in for surgery.
The surgery was about 20 minutes after I got my epidural and then after some tugging, and while talking to your daddy, out your little head popped...and I heard you cry. It was the best feeling in the world. After that, they pulled you out and I saw you for the first time. Your Daddy took pictures of you and then they brought you over to me.
Though I was tied down because of the surgery that was still going on, they put you close to my face and I saw you up close. I felt your face close to mine, I smelled you...you cried and I cried. It was the day that my life changed for ever.
After we bonded briefly your Daddy took you out and they finished the surgery patching mommy up.
You are now home and I'm finally getting a moment to updat and say you made it here, but I'm so happy. I will post pictures of your arrival and many pictures of the days throughout.
You are so perfect...everything in its place. Lips like Momma cheeks like daddy and a head full of beautiful black hair. You are more of a blessing than I could ever have asked for. You are everything to me and I vow to work hard to make everyday a better day for you and to be the best Mommy you will ever have.
I'm watching you sleep right now and though my nights and days have been hard I would not change them for the world and love you more than I love myself.
Awww....tear. That was beautiful...I am so happy for you. Children are definitely God's blessing and we are so lucky to experience that. I pray that you get all of the joy that God intended for motherhood!
