Visiting Mom - November 2006
They are always your children
Their arrival is the beginning of love in the purest sense.
28 years ago on Super Bowl Sunday, my last child arrived. I knew the drill on the third "take" of LETS HAVE A BABY TODAY! Wake up in labor, notify dad-to-be this would be the day, make the necessary phone calls to family and friends all the while trying not to panic. Yeah, right! After the first one, what you know DOES sort of scare you. But you know there's no turning back, (although all three times I turned to hubby and proclaimed that I really didn't want to do this today) and your excited that soon you will be looking into that new little face and holding that itty, bitty hand.
So, on this day those many years ago, I looked into the eyes that would turn a deep, dark brown; and hold in my arms, my last baby...........Joel Robert.
