Sixteen Years Ago

Morgan 16 (left) and Allison 6 (right)

It was sixteen years ago today that I got to hold my first child.  I was suppose to be going in to see if she had finally decided to turn into the correct position and I was already having small contractions.  Needless to say, she was stubborn and still in the wrong position — she was breech.  The doctor looked at me and asked if I wanted to wait until full blown labor and have a C-Section then, or if I wanted to have one right then.  Tough decision, but I instantly knew I wanted to bypass those labor pains!

So at 1:48pm, Morgan arrived with barely a cry and brought tears to my eyes.  She weighed 6 pounds, 8 ounces and only 18 and half inches long.  Today marks the 16 year mark of her birth and I can’t believe it.  She has grown into a wonderful young woman, and she is a great sister to Madison and Allison.  I love you Morgan and I am so proud of you!  Here are to many more birthdays and I am sure many more tears I will shed as you grow.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY
from your family and friends!
