On Tuesday your dad and I were getting ready for bed. He read Little One by Jo Weaver and after he finished the story my water broke. I guess after hearing about the little baby bear you were ready to come out of hibernation. We called the on call number and waited to hear whether we should head to the hospital or not. We finally got the confirmation to drive to North Fulton Hospital. When we arrived they confirmed that my water had broken and that you were officially on the way. We were admitted into a Labor & Delivery room and then the waiting began. You took your time a total of 39 hours during which everyone kept eagerly asking about your arrival. It was stressful waiting for you but your daddy and all the nurses/midwives were a wonderful coaching and support system.
Finally after a long day and a half you made your grand entrance into the world at 11:17 AM EST on Thursday. I will never forget the overwhelming sense of pride and love I felt the first moment I held you in my arms. I knew right away our lives would never be the same. I will spend my entire life loving you and being there for you in whatever way you need. You truly are the best thing that has ever happened in our lives and we thank God all the time for trusted us to raise you. I hope that there is a never a day in your life when you don't know how loved you are. You were born into such a loving family not just your dad and I but 3 sets of grandparents and a wide networks of aunts/uncles and friends who all love you so much and have been so excited to meet you.
