28 weeks - part 2 - It's time...

Thursday afternoon August 13th
After a full day on the couch with some peculiar but consistent fluid and cramps, I finally called the Midwife to see if she could tell me what was going on. Looking back it was obvious my water had broken, and I was experiencing contractions for the first time in my life. However, I'm a rookie, and I hadn't a clue. At 4pm I called Zeb to come home to tell him, "it was time." The Midwife had instructed me to come to the hospital, because I was likely in labor.


Zeb emailed this message out early Friday morning August 14th.

Dear Family,

Glory went home to be with her Lord this morning at 4:05.

Allison is resting well at Baylor All Saints after about 10 hours of labor.

She mentioned you all shortly after giving birth and wanted me to convey our thanks for what you have done for us.

"Naked I came from my mother's womb, and naked shall I return. The Lord gave, and the Lord has taken away; blessed be the name of the Lord." Job 1:21

Love,

Zeb & Ally
