Since we didn’t know that I would have a c-section and would be in the hospital for 3 days, we didn’t
pack enough stuff for Daddy. He didn’t have enough clothes, and we couldn’t really afford to
have him eating in the cafeteria for every meal... But our family pulled through for us!
Even though it has snowed for most of the day when you were born, Uncle Rudy and
Aunt Crystal drove all the way in from Gresham and picked up Grammy from our house.
Grammy had packed some extra clothes for Daddy, and had made him some
sandwiches and snacks. Then they stayed and visited with us for a while. We had
a really nice time. We chatted, and swapped birth stories... We also got to introduce you to
Melody, and we hoped that you two would become great friends. Auntie Crystal had also
written me a letter, telling us about what went on in the waiting room while you were being
born. I read it allowed to Daddy after they left, and the letter
touched us so much that we both ended up crying. I have that letter
still, tucked into your baby book. A reminder of our family’s
love for us all.
