Rhys Thomas

boy #4 was born last saturday around 1am. rachs sister julie, and friends tania and beth along with myself and our midwife. maureen, who was with us for the 3 previous birthages,.. were there. i actually got to deliver Rhys myself for the most part, and to be honest.....
it scared the piss out of me. haha.
and, it was amazing, but, grabbing wet ass things with rubber gloves is kinda nerve wracking,,,, but,,,, i didnt drop him! yay to that. hes an awesome baby, he only cries when hes hungry,,,, so hes being kind to rach, and i owe him for that. he has the impending kidney surgery, and that scares me to my core , but,,,,,
its all good.
its sad to say, but the kidney surgery crap has basically been a part of our lives since coop was born, so nothing really suprises us too much, although the level of how bad Rhys' kidney is kinda caught me off guard.
so, i will plop my faith in whatever it is i put my faith in,,,, and i will grab rachs hand and we will trudge through,, like we always do.
everything can be dealt with, and thats whats funny about life,,, you dont have a choice. theres no sand to plop my head in,,, life swirls around ... theres always good and bad... and all the bad does is make us stronger,... take that shit to the bank.
