Happy 22nd Birthday Tyler!

April 30, 1991 at 7:22 pm our first son was born.  He was 8 lbs. 3 oz. and 20 1/4 inches long.  He was perfect!  Tyler Sean Rhone.  We were so happy and proud!  12 hours of labor, high blood pressure, and a faint heart beat sent us into an emergency c-section.  Daddy carried him to the nursery from the OR. 

When they brought him to me later, I cried, like I'd never cried before.  I was crying tears of joy and tears of fear all at the same time.  He was perfect and I so wanted to be a perfect Mom, a Mom he deserved.   Was I a perfect Mom?  No, of course not, no one is.  But, I hope he knows I tried to be, and tried to be all he ever needed when he needed it, plus some! 

Tyler has brought so much joy to our family over the years and I am truly blessed and a better person because he's my son! 

 

Happy 22nd, Tyler!  I hope this year brings lots of happiness, health and love!

 

(P.S....I love you the Mostest!!)
