My Sissy Turns 30 Today

December 29th, 1979 at 7:19pm Ashley was born. First of us 3 children. My Mom experienced a very difficult preeclamptic delivery which back then was more serious than it is today. The Dr. actually told my Dad that my Mom OR my sister would most likely not make it. However after being delivered by c-section Ashley was in ICU for 3 days and Mom pulled through. Going on to later having two more babies, my brother and I by c-section and all pretty normal pregnancies.

So 30 years ago today God gave my Mom and Dad their first miracle. Ashley Brooke Underwood was born weighing 10lbs 1oz. (the genes behind Ashley and I's big babies)
