I know Leah's birthday isn't until Monday, but when I think back to when she was born I tend to think more about the days of the week. I went into labor on a Wednesday afternoon and headed to the hospital around 10 pm, she was born at 4:48 am on Thursday and was sent to Omaha soon after that. John and his dad were there in Omaha with her on Thursday, and I made it late afternoon on Friday. Let me tell you, being in a full maternity ward with no baby doesn't make you a high priority. Thankfully I had my SIL there (who is a nurse and had just given birth less than two months previous and spent time in the NICU with our nephew) to help me through the night without a baby or a husband. About this time 3 years ago I was trying to get in a quick nap at home to get rid of my massive migraine (hormones and stress will do that to you) before heading to Omaha to be re-united with Leah after a good 36 hrs or so.
I will post more about Leah's story next week, but until then I hope you enjoy this:
