announcing.....

I had a funny phone call yesterday, I was in the library (embarrassed to have my phone ring while in such a quiet place) I heard a voice that sounds just like MLR...
boy: Hey
me: hey....totally whispered....boys voice gets quiet
boy: we are having a baby
me inside my head: WHAT? That can't be...how....when...IMPOSSIBLE
me speaking: Shut-up...(totally freaking out)...and then....DUH!
It was my brother-in-law. Jill was having the baby NOT me! Heart rate slowly begins to decelerate.
I feel so blessed I got to spend the day waiting for the sweet new arrival. Jill did AMAZING! The whole time I kept thinking about how this little person was just waiting to take her first breath and how unbelievable the female body is. How amazing that just moments before entering this world she was with angels. It was one of the most incredible moments, thank you for letting me be part of it Luke and Jill.
Violet Elizabeth Randall...........5 lbs. 7 oz. of pure beauty.
