All You Did Was Stop Smiling...

I lost a baby in my first trimester two months before Troy was conceived. Naturally, there was a lot of excitement to find out we were expecting again. As soon as Troy was born, the doctor said to me, "Cheryl, I kept waiting for you to scream out or something. But, all you did was stop smiling."

I guess that's right. But having a baby is hard work and takes concentration. I suppose it is okay to stop smiling long enough to welcome in 8lbs, 14oz, & 22" of joy!

Troy Dale has never met a stranger. He has grown up to be a responsible, respectful, compassionate young man. He is one of my biggest blessings, I am his biggest fan, and I am honored that God chose ME to be his momma:)
