My fourth child, Olivia, was delivered by emergency C-section with only local anesthesia, the kind that is rubbed on your gums for dental work. And even though I felt almost every cut, I experienced God's presence and His peace more than any other time in my life!
The moment I was told that it had to be done, I knew that I had a decision to make. Would I totally freak out or would I totally trust God? I realized that I would only make the situation worse if I lost control of myself, so trusting God was my only option. Once I made the decision, the rest was a piece of cake.
More to come on later post.....

Wow. I didn't know that. I'll have to get the rest of the story sometime soon. I love birth stories, especially when God was in control.
Did you hear that Dr Ritch is sick (I think sick enough to be not practicing right now). Everytime I hear about her I think of you.
Wow. That is amazing. God's grace is big.
So glad we met today. I look forward to checking in on the blog to follow along.
