That Can't Be My Baby!?

When I first saw Vivienne I thought, that can't be my baby!!! That baby is red and hairy and scowling and can only open one eye. Will she ever be able to open the other one? The nurse assured me that she had opened the other eye and that it worked just fine. Is it really a girl? Everyone had told me I was carrying like a boy. Does she have 10 fingers and toes? Eric had counted, yes there were 10 of each and yes it was a girl. Those were my exact thoughts, in that order.




After all of that, I finally took a breath and really looked at my baby-She was perfect! I loved her! I couldn't wait for every second that would follow.
