THE DAY BEFORE YOUR BIRTHDAY

On Tuesday April 29, 2008 , your Mom went to the Dr. to see how you and her were doing. The Dr. was concerned that her blood pressure was high and wanted to see her on Friday. I got a call from your Mom and she was crying, she wanted me to come to Austin to be with her, she was not feeling good!

I arrived in Austin on Wednesday around 5:oo pm and went to Dee's house where your Mom was working. I took one look at your Mom and put my mouth to her tummy and told you it was time for you to come out, no more fooling around! Your poor Mom looked miserable, her hands and feet were swollen and she looked so tired.

We left Dee's house and went to pick up your Dad at the bus stop and had dinner. I can't remember where we ate. Your Dad went home and your Mom and I went to Target to pick up some last minute items for you. She bought a waterproof mattress pad just in case her water broke in bed.

We came home and finally went to bed around midnight. I was fast asleep and about 12:30 your Dad knocked on the door and told me your Mom's water had broke.
