Kirsten's 6th Birthday

Kirsten Leigh is 6! 6 years old! Where has the time gone? 6 years ago I was sitting on my couch waiting for Cameron to get home from playing football. I was having these annoying and uncomfortable stomach pains, and thought, this sucks, who wants to be sick on Thanksgiving? When he got home, I told him that maybe we could run to the hospital and see if they could give me something to stop the cramps. If we hurried, we could make it to his mom's house in time for dinner. So, the clueless parents went to the hospital, and asked the nurses if they could help us, please. The nurse named Wanda checked me out and I was dilated 5 cm! She exlaimed in delight that there was no way that I could go home because I was going to have a baby that day! Um, what? Did she just say what I think she just said? A baby? I am so not ready for this. Cameron and I hadn't packed a bag or anything. So after a lof of yelling and panicking at 4:22PM on Thanksgiving Day in 2002 we were blessed with the most precious gift we had ever been given. Kirsten Leigh came into this world weighing a tiny 6lbs 12oz and she was 19in long. She had a thick head of dark brown hair and the most perfect and soft skin. This is the day I became a mother and Cameron became a father. This is the day our family began. Kirsten is so big and so smart and so mature. We love her so much. She is such a big helper and the best big sister! We love you Kirsten Leigh!
