*Star*

Today Cooper told me when I die I will become a *star* in the sky! I then asked him if he would talk to me? He looked at me puzzled and said but you would be dead I said yes but if I am a star you can talk to me every night! He then asked me how he will know which star I am? I told him when he looks in the sky he will know. I will be the brightest star up there! He then asks me when I am going to grow old and die?

Happy Birthday Dekon

Here is the blog I wrote on myspace Novemeber 7, 2008:

So I started having contractions Tuesday mid morning. I was put into the hospital, things were going well, I was dilating slowly but surely. Doctor broke my water. time passes... See who our new president is.....contractions so strong. Things turn bad. His heartbeat pretty much stops, I'm fading in and out from being so tired. All the sudden I hear GET HER DOWNSTAIRS NOW! Josh wasn't allowed to come in with me. They knock me out and perform an emergency C-Section. (Which includes NO, ZERO, NADA pain medicine!) I come to ask what floor I'm on and if he's ok. They tell me things are fine. I get upstairs and Josh asks me what I want his name to be (we still hadn't set on one), I told him to pick. Josh comes back tells me is name is Dekon, it just fit. Then I hear they are sending my little one to Des Moines because he's not breathing on his own. So I get to see him, no holding, touching, see him and off he goes. I find out Josh hadn't even gotten to hold him!

We got calls and called Des Moines to see how he is doing, things are going good. He is breathing on his own and messing with a bottle. I got discharged at noon today, little over 24 hours later. I STILL HURT VERY MUCH, but vicodin is my friend and keeping me from crying when I move! We went up and saw Dekon today. And we were told begining of next week he should be able to come home. He just needs to learn to suck and swallow. Same problem Cooper had.



Oh,
