After being in town two weeks early in order to not miss the birth, my granddaughter arrived while I was parking the car! Rebecca went into labor on Thanksgiving Eve after a trip to the midwife that day. Her labor was only about four hours, and apparently we waited a bit too long to head to the hospital. She was on the maternity floor just 3 minutes before the birth!
Joseph called me as I was entering the hospital, but I could not find a working elevator in time to get there! I walked in the room, and the baby was already in Rebecca’s arms. I did get to cut the cord and help take photos.
Her t-shirt definitely tells the truth
