After that emotional ending to my last episode, I will continue with one of the most precious events of our lives. We had put aside for a little while, the music and the dancing, in our home. All of us were waiting, for the day and time, of the birth of our baby. The due date was for Sunday the 10th of August, but I wasn’t counting on that. The other four children, were either born before, or after the expected date. Naomi was invited to go with our friends from Italy, to a conference in Holland for Christian artists. It was a big decision for her, but we knew it would be special, so we encouraged her to go.

Because it was school vacation Thomas wanted to do some outings with the girls. One of my daughters remembered that he took them to the lake, but they stopped to call me from a phone booth, to make sure I was Ok. Now a days, its hard to imagine, not having instant contact through our cell phones. I guess we were just trusting the Lord, that we would be together at home, when my labor started.
