Our last Baby's Birthday tomorrow and we are missing her......I would love to hug her and give her a big Mummy Kiss...I will just have to give it to her Skype Style...xxx
Here Naomi played the role of the Little Red Hen....which only she could do....would it be rude to say she really did sound like a chook !!!
Now this is so typical......and we all love it about her....there is no pretense within her...if yer socks fall down ye pull them up...doesn't matter where or who is looking.......she is a delight a blessing and all that any parent could ever want.
When I found out I was pregnant again I went straight to Honor my friends house, knocked on her door and stood there crying and blurted out I'm Pregnant again.....wo is me !!!! I was 39 had had 6 children the last three in 4 years plus a miscarriage in between and I didn't really want to go through that again....
I had my cry to a kind listening ear....left her house and got on with my life. Didn't stay in the doldrums for long I was pregnant and so be it....I do remember being very hesitant in telling both My Mum and Tony's Mum....I think both were hoping...that we would cope and that my health would stand up to all the rigours etc...plus people today just didn't have so many children.
The pregnancy went well....except for the usual sickness and all the normal things that can be a little annoying. But we felt blessed after getting over the shock....I thought that I was protected as I was fully breast feeding.....You think I would know better !!!
Tony was doing a job 400 k's away...he was putting up Towers for a T.V Station...
and I was getting really close to my due date....of course the inevitable happened, my waters broke and there was no way of contacting Tony...no mobile phone and he was out in the never never in regards to Country Towns....
.A Missionary Couple came over and they took me to the Hospital and if we remember right Honor came over to take care of the children.......The labour was really intense......but I had made previous arrangements to have an epidural...it was the only thing that kept me sane...when thinking about giving birth....I felt that I could not go through that again.
Of course it took some time for the Dr to come...much longer then I would have liked, but the needle went in and I expected immediate relief.....it did but only on one side so back the Dr had to come again.... seemed like I had to wait forever again but this time it worked well...only enough anaesthetic was given so that it would wear off at the end so you had all your feeling back to do what needed to be done to give birth.....but it wore off way before I was ready and they were reluctant to give me anymore as I was so close...aghhhhh
after having 6 children you would think that this might have been the easiest....but alas it was one of the hardest....it was because she was my heaviest and she was stuck in the birth canal.
Now Tony being so far away started to get a feeling that he needed to go home even though the job was not done...the feeling became so intense that he left....and to my utter delight and surprise and in a pretty yucky time...... in walked Tony still in his work cloths.... but who cared..... Thank You Heavenly Father for giving him those feelings..... I could tell that he was already celebrating the birth all the way home...but he soon fully sobered up when he saw the pretty full on scene that was happening in that little room. The same room her Sisters had been born in except for Katie and Nic who was born in the next room.
After a lot of drama ..... Na was extracted with forceps.... SHE was here and sosooo beautiful....golden hair and golden complexion.......here she was child number 7 and I was in awe of her presence...I looked down at her and my heart filled with love .... I felt rather hesitant to pick her up, I felt such a reverence being next to her and being her Mother.....Her intelligence I felt far exceeded mine.
I will come back to this...I need to go and have a little cry !!!!!! wonderful memories
I'm back it's now a proven thing about her intelligence !!!!!!
She was vivacious, very cheeky, full of adventure and a bit of a challenge.....Nothing escaped her attention I remember trying to sneak out to go and do some shopping....of course Dad was home and so was Opa and as I drove out the driveway there she was looking out her window....did I go back ....of course...I did not !!!
The moment she could climb out of her cot...that is exactly what she did..we would put her in her bed and we no sooner would get to the lounge area and she was right behind us...we would have a quiet little giggle...until it would get too much...we had never experienced anything like this with the others...
It was impossible for her to sit still and each Family Home Evening ...almost as part of each lesson someone would have to say NAOMI !!!!!!!
Would we have it any other way...would we ever regret having this marvelous child NEVER NEVER NEVER.....It has been our privilege, honour and delight......
The Sun still shines out of her Countenance.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY DARLING XXX
By the way I would not leave the Hospital until my tubes were tied and I checked with the Dr...that they were cut and tied far apart from each other....
