Delivery Day

Friday July 31, 2009 was a day to remember. I was given the honor of holding two sweet beautiful babies in my arms. Both great friends - Lauren Hutchins and Missy Edwards - delivered on the same day. Different locations and times of course but nevertheless SAME DAY!! I am so blessed and fortunate to have been there to see the sweet little miracles. Holding both babies in my arms only fueled my desire for mine and Charlie's own miracle. I can still remember a few years ago, holding my nephew Storm and my niece Marina, when they were little babies. I can remember saying to myself - "This kids are not even mine and I love them so much. I can only imagine what it feels like to love your own children."



At 5:06 am, Lauren Hutchins delivered Miss Julia Grace Hutchins at CMC Northeast, Concord N.C. She was 8lbs 1oz and 21 inches long. It took 22 hours for Lauren to deliver but she and Julia both persevered. Below are some pics that were captured.

Missy Edwards delivered Matthew Wyatt Edwards also on July 31, 2009. He was a few weeks early but still weighed 7lbs 81/2 oz! I can only imagine how big he would have been at full term! Below are some pics:
