I still can't believe it! She isn't my child. I didn't carry her for months. But I was so excited I couldn't sleep! Chasity sent me a message on facebook on Friday afternoon saying she was having contractions but wasn't far enough dilated for them to keep her. She went to a restaurant then decided to come home. I ran some errands and charged my battery, getting ready to capture the birth. She messaged me at one point, I think around 8:30. All it said was "OMG this hurts." Then nothing. I knew it was too late. LOL I knew there was no way I could get all the way to Portsmouth before that baby came. I went and laid down. I was tired, but I tossed and turned. Finally at 11:30 my phone rang. The first thing out of her mouth was, "Heather, she came so fast I didn't even have a chance to call you!" And then I heard the baby crying! Such a great sound! Of course I had to run up there the next day to see little Miss Kennedy Rota Griffith! Got almost to the tunnel and then got stuck in traffic for an HOUR. I hate tunnels and bridges AND traffic. But I made it! And it was worth it! She is beautiful, and looks just like her big sister, Ava! All 6lbs 12oz of her!
