Epilogue...

I hope you've enjoyed reading my blog. Maybe I'll start another one....who knows, but in the meantime, this one's going to print. I hope you will remember some of my words and maybe read them to the next generation. It was fun writing them. ~ NLP

California time...

One day I was preparing to go to Primary and I had a contraction. No way, I thought. This baby isn't due for two more weeks. So I went to the church and every ten minutes or so I would have another contraction. By the time we arrived home, I decided it was time to go to the hospital. That night a sweet baby girl was born at 10:00pm California time. My doctor asked me what we were going to name her and I said, "Kimberly"...he said, "No, she's an Amy"....So, Amy is her name. She is the typical middle child, very quiet, the peacemaker. She is still loved as much as that first day 37 years ago. Happy birthday, Amy, I am so proud of you and love you so much!!

Pitocin

Thirty years ago today, I was hooked up to pitocin in order to induce labor so my husband could leave town...can't remember why. But, four hours later a baby boy came into the world. When he popped out, the nurse gasped. "Oh no!! What's wrong??," I thought. But the nurse said, "Why, he's the cutest baby I've ever seen!!" No kidding!! He was a very active boy, burning off every calorie I could put in him. Being the youngest of our five children, he was sometimes tormented, but he was loved very much. He grew up to be very musically talented, very athletic, and very fun!! and yes, he's still very cute!! I'm so proud to be his mom. I love you son!!
