Events of This Morning

I want to start this post by thanking my absolutely amazing husband Kyle who I love a million times more today than I ever thought I could love someone. AND to Jenny Helm who has been here with me since 6:30PM last night and been a huge comfort to me and a wonderful labor coach. Her selflessness and knowledge of L&D (she's a L&D nurse) have made this experience so much better than I could have ever imagined.

THIS MORNING

6:45 My Dr came in to examine me and i was dilated to 3 cm
9:00 Decided to get epidural and it's in place and working miracles by 930
9:45 Dr Rutter comes in and breaks my water and a catheter was placed
10:00-10:30 Visit with my parents, Kyle's parents, my sister-in-law, & Jenny H and am overwhelmed with a huge sense of God's presence in the room. I almost cry but keep His stillness to myself. So precious. I'm reminded of the praise song that states:
"How deep The Father's love for us"
10:30-Now: resting, praying, praising with only my husband with me in this delivery room. The stillness and peace I feel cannot be put into words. We are so ready for this journey Lord. Thank You for all You've done!
