The day you were born, i remeber it like it was yesterday...... I woke up around 4a.m., and I could not feel you moving, it scared me. I got nana and papa up and we called the hospital. They told me to drink some water and eat some toast to see if that would help stir you. I tried those things, waited an hour like they said and it didnt work, still no movement. We called them back, time to go to the hospital... We went straight away, I was so scared something was wrong. We get there, I was dialated but not much so they had me walk the halls for an hour. That helped some, I was then dialated to a 3 so they lept me. They hooked up all these things to me, and not long after the contractions started. I received an epideral for the pain. Dr. Cryns came to check on me before he went to the office, he said everything looked fine, he would be back to check on me later. Nana was there and Papa was waiting in the waiting room. Everyone was excited and awaiting your arriavle. Around lunch time cousin Trina came to see me, and Dr. Cryns showed up to check on us again. He then told me i was going to deliver you now!! i couldnt believe it. So it started, the pushing and pushing, it took only 40 min., for your head and shoulders to appear, i watched everyting they had mirrors placed to i could see the second you showed your beautiful face. (he had to use a suction on your head, it was a little big lol) Once your shoulders were out, he told me to reach down and pull you out, thats what i did. I brought you right on to my chest, the most beautiful amazing thing i had ever seen. Nana cut your umbilicil cord, after that everyting is a little fuzzy for me. I do remeber seeing uncle Howard come in to see  you. My beautiful James Ray Cooper was finaly here. I cannot put into words how i felt that day, a true gift from God you were. I'll love you forever, like you for always, as long as i'm living my baby you'll be. My brownbear, i miss you.......Love- Mom
