I can't believe that it's been 18 years! Sunday the 27th will be Steph's 18th birthday! Wow! Where did these years go?! But somehow it seems like yesterday that my labor pains started and I was getting ready to head to the hospital. Let me just say - I was scared to death and ready to get it over with. The epidural was wonderful though! After about 36 hours in labor, Stephanie made an entrance into this world about 1:45 am in the morning weighing 6 lbs. 11 oz. and 20 1/2 inches long. And just let me say that she was none too happy to be here. She came into this world screaming. Wow - what a set of lungs she had on her! (and she still does!)
Oh, but when they placed her in my arms.....what a feeling! My beautiful baby girl! I was ever so glad to have her here! I thank God for her everyday! I feel truly blessed. She is becoming a beautiful young woman and I pray for God's blessings in her life and that she will give her life to Him.
I'll post some pics later. I need to get some "old" ones scanned and I'll be taking some new one's this weekend.
