Day Thirteen - Not a hard day to find the good

Not a hard day to find the good at all. My baby turned four today! I can not believe she is already so old. THIS IS ONE FOURTH OF THE WAY TO 16!!!!!! Granted she, on days, has the attitude of a 16 year old. I love her and my life changed so much since the day she was born. That weekend was a crazy weekend!
Like any crazy soon-to-be father I did not see what the big deal was to going out on Halloween when my wife is 9 months pregnant and due in five days, so like a crazy I dragged her out on Friday night.  We stayed out way too late with my pregnant wife too. That night, after we got home, Tiff moved to the other bed in the house. I figured she moved to the just to being uncomfortable. I had to work the next morning and I got a call while I was at work from tiff, she was having contractions. My thought "WE ARE CLOSE"........ Yea right..... All that rest of the day we walked, and walked, and walked, and on, and on, and on! Tiff was having contractions all day and then all into the night and that translated into no sleep for either of us! On Sunday morning, early, we finally decided to go to the hospital. When we got there we almost got sent home. I thought when the nurse said that we might have to go home I thought Tiffs head was going to spin around, but you know what we did, we walked........ The only difference this time was that it was around a OB ward, and not a big one either. After 2 hours of walking they did finally admit her. After awhile all of our family showed up, but not Mackenzie, yet.
 At about 2:00 pm they finally said that Tiff could start pushing. Now Kenzie was not the type of kid that comes out in three pushes. Tiff pushed for two hours and forty five minutes. I was trying to help and be supportive but I kept getting those "shut the heck up" looks (later realized that those were just "get this child out of me" looks). At 4:45 pm my baby girl was born.
She is my little bird, my second love of my life, my little Tiff, my little me, my little dance partner, my tv buddy, my other nurse, and my little everything. I am so happy she entered my life and could not imagine my life without her. I am thankful for that little girl every day of my life.
