This is a long one! :o)

Aw man, Shockers baseball, we lost, but they played pretty good!! My good friend Alex hit a BOMB outta the park, YAHOO GO ALEX!!! Maybe we just got the loss out of our system, from here on out it's winnin time!!

So graduation, whew, here it comes, Ive already cried today, but that was my aunt Suzy fault, lol. My cousin Taylor is graduating from McAdory tomorrow night also, so they are having a little get together for him after graduation, so she sent me an email inviting me. I sent her one back and I reflected on a day that I went to the doctor with her for her, what we now know, was her final check up before the little baby arrived! So, after the doctor visit we went to her car and she was all, OMG, Give me your hand! Well, I was not sure what she wanted to do with my hand and I could tell she was in some pain, I was all, NO WAY! She said, Really let me see your hand, and at that moment I put my hand on her GIANT belly and it was hard, she was having contractions! I was all, do I need to go get a doctor, she laughed at me and said no, it's fine. Then we were on our way, early the next morning we got a call, she was in labor and little Taylor was born, that was 18 years ago, but I told her today I remember that. She sent back saying, I made her cry and she did remember that day, she also remember the day the call came that Trevar was born and how everyone I loved stood in the hallway, waiting to see if it was a boy or a girl, only to have a couple of minutes of scariness that the cord was wrapped around the baby's neck and every time a contraction came it tightened up and the baby's heart would slow down, but with Gods hand right on my little Trevar he was born and healthy as can be. Which then made me think of that day, July 5, 1990. It was crazy, I went to my checkup with Mom and Debbie, I remember we were going to get something to eat after the appointment. Well when I went to see the doctor, he said we're gonna induce labor, that is when it hit me, this little life I had inside of me was coming out, OHG! After the inducing started everything else was pretty much a blur, doctors in and out, family in and out, do you need any ice chips, are you hurting, can I do anything, but then the moment came where the doctors and nurses were worried, I remember I could see it on their faces, something was wrong, they told everyone to get out, then I was rushed down the hall, just like in a movie, I was going to have surgery, I cried I didn't want anything to be wrong with my baby! The doctor told me I had a choice, either see if the cord would loosen on it's own, which would put the baby at danger or have a c-section, which would put me in danger, no thinking needed, so c-section here we come. ANYWAY, all that to say, I am truly blessed, God have me a healthy baby boy and now my baby is graduating.

Even though at times my life feels outta control, like things never go my way, I have to think about moments like that, things do go my way, I have a healthy son and a wonderful family that stands by me no matter what. Some people don't have that, I am blessed beyond words and my Jesus gets me though each day!

Sorry, tomorrow is graduation, be patient with me for one more day and it will all be over with, I stop with the sappiness!! Promise! :o)

Thanks for stopping by, is anybody reading this?

See YA!

You did very well today - you're baby graduated! I can't believe it. And of course, in Trevar style - instead of shaking that guys hand, he patted his butt. Oh boy, that Trevar. He cracks me up.

You have a wonderful son - we love him so much. God has blessed you with a little miracle at first that grew into an amazing man.

Love you!

Oh and I read your blog :)
