new life

Yesterday my cousin's wife had a baby. Joel Bradley Gentry. I got to see him today..he's so cute!
I heard of the traumatic labor...or whatever you want to call it.
Brad (my cousin) was told to say goodbye to his wife because they didn't think she'd make it through the labor.
The baby got stuck in the birth canal and had to be taken by c-section.
I'm so glad mommy and baby are both ok.
But I can't help imagine that one day may be me.
With my husband giving me potentially the last kiss ever.
Having to hear those words.
I hope it will never me. I want to be there for my kids.
It's an incredibly scary thought.
Especially when you see the baby... as precious as him.
