Dear Ryder,
We did it!!
Well, we didn't quite make it to your official due date, but I thought I would go ahead and round out our first 40 weeks together.
You were born on Monday, May 5, 2014 at 6:59 in the evening. I went through more than 20 hours of labor before you were eventually delivered via cesarean section. I don't know how the whole experience seemed to you, but things got very scary for Mommy and Daddy for a minute there! But that's all in the past now, and ever since the moment you were born we have been busy getting to know each other and falling madly in love with you.
Everything has been such a whirlwind, and I promise that someday soon I will document all the details for you here, but for now this is all I am able to accomplish... even being away from you for a few moments makes my heart ache. I never knew you could love another human being this much.
Happy birthday, my precious, darling, amazing, angel first born son!
Love Always,
Mommy
