While I was pregnant with Bella I was in a very minor finder bender, every one was fine the police weren't even called. Since I was so over anxious I asked my mom to go with me to make sure everything was fine with the baby. When we got there according to the NST i was having contractions, But i knew they were not real ones the real ones feel different. Since i was 37 weeks along they said i had to stay for 24 hours of monitoring to make sure i wasn't going into labor. They took me to a room and the nurse came in to do all the admittance paperwork. What had happened in my previous pregnancy is all over my paperwork and she started asking me questions about it. The one the stuck the most in my mind was her asking me which labor and delivery room i was in, i didnt remember the room number but i told her where the room was. She looked and me and started crying, She told me she was Jacob's nurse when he was born. She remembered the whole situation down to the room i was in before the emergency c-section. I of course started crying. I couldnt believe that this nurse had held my son. She had taken care of my baby. She had been the one to weight him and measure him and wrap him in a little blanket. I was crying uncontrollably and at that point my mom walks back in the room and see's me sobbing the nurse crying and hugging me and I told her she was going to hear something amazing and that she was going to cry to, and she did. She asked about Kaleb because even though she wasn't his nurse she was there when he was born and remembered him and his loud set of lungs. I don't know how long we sat there talking, crying, and looking at pictures. It was such an amazing gift for me to meet her, I was put to sleep right away so I don't have any memory of anything after they wheeled me into the OR so I didn't remember her from that day, but she sure remembered me and my little boys.
It was about 2 weeks later and I was at UMC bright and early for Bella's planned C-section and the same nurse saw I was there so she came in for a few minutes when her shift was over and we talked and she saw Josh again and hugged him. I was so disappointed she had worked the night shift so she couldn't be the nurse for Bella. But she was so wonderful. She was truly a blessing and this will always be one of my favorite memories.
Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice,and let them say among the nations, "The Lord reigns!"
Oh give thanks to the Lord, for he is good;for his steadfast love endures forever!
1 Chronicles 16:31, 34
