Memorable Days!

  There are 6 days in my life that stand out as the most memorable days of my life:

1.  The day I realized that I was in love with Ricky Hall!  That was a earth shaking day for.  When we first met neither one of us liked the other one and one day we looked at each other and saw something different.  I knew the minute I first kissed him that I would spend the rest of my life with him.
2. The day he asked me to marry him.  I waited 5 long years to hear him ask me that all important question.  Every Christmas and birthday I would drop hints that you would have to be an idiot not to get.  Finally the one Christmas when he asked me what I wanted,  I just told him to get me what he wanted me to have.  He gave me a stuffed lion hand puppet and had a ring box stuffed up inside of it.  Very memorable
3. The day we married.  I had waited on that day for so long.  You see I have loved that man something fierce! He is my heart and I know he loves me! He is my soul mate.
4. The birth of my daughter.  She came almost a whole year to the day that we were married.  I fell madly in love with her.  She was just a little piece of heaven that God sent to me.
5. The birth of my son.  I also fell madly in love with him.  Another little piece of heaven
6. Today - the birth of my granddaughter Elizabeth Faye.  She was born today at 4:24PM today. She weighs 7lbs and 1 oz and was 20 inches long.  She has a head full of black hair and a great set of lungs.  I was allowed to help with the delivery.  Actually all I did was hold her right leg up and count to ten while she pushed.  That was truly an honor and a memory I will treasure for the rest of my life.  I actually witnessed her entrance into this world.  It was awesome!  Nothing compares to that!  It's just indescribable.  I squaled like a baby when she came out and the doctor just hugged my neck.  She was so sweet.  The Nurse Midwife that deliver Elizabeth was the same the one that helped deliver Chris almost 18 years ago!

  The only draw-back to today was that my mom was not here to share in it.  But I know she was there in spirit,  I could feel her there.  Ms. Alice and Mr. Rick came and was able to hear the whole delivery.  She had called my phone and the nursery nurse thought  she had silenced it but she really answered and they heard everything that went on.  I think it was meant for them to be a part of it.
