NO EPIDURAL, NOT EVEN TYLENOL

:taps mic: i did not want to have children. i repeat, i did not want to be a mother


but God tapped me on my shoulder and blessed my womb
and the rest is history...
now i can't imagine anything else
i've never seen a little person be so patient with me, so patient with our circumstances, so understanding of our sacrifices
so if being a week and a half over due, enduring 48 hours of labor, which includes throwing up, hot and cold flashes and no food if you didn't know and 10 hours of active labor, 2 and a half hours of pushing and stretch marks will get you a little person like that, i have to say, i would do it all again in a heartbeat.


you are a walking phenomenon, a reminder that average people can do extraordinary things.
