Jim has inspired me to start writing my life story. You can read his blog here. I would like to start with my trip to Dallas to be with Rebecca and Glynn when their new baby was born. Rebecca called and told me that her Doctor wanted her to stay off her feet until the baby was born. I felt like I needed to get there earlier than I had planned so that I could help her. So I left May 15th, right away I ran into problems. The flight from Salt Lake was delayed. I had to change plans in New Mexico and we got there just 10 minutes before that flight left. But we did get to Dallas on time.
Rebecca meet me at the airport and we made the short trip to her new home. Izaiah has grown so much and he was very friendly to me. He showed me all his trains and cars. Their new home is very nice and they have fixed it up very comfortably. Rebecca had a follow up appointment that she had to take care of for her work. She was scheduled to have her baby May 21st but Tuesday May 20th she woke up having contractions. She and Glynn went to the hospital and they sent her home. They said the contractions were not close enough and they were really busy and they could not fit her in. This, of course, because she was scheduled for a cesarian the next morning. So they came home but by 8pm she was having harder contractions and then she had a bloody show. Glynn took her back to the hospital and little Jaxon was born 20 minutes from the time they walked in the door. But baby was born with out any drugs or cutting. She recovered so fast. The baby is so beautiful. Rebecca’s friend Cathryn came over and stayed and took care of Izaiah. We had a good time. She entertained Izaiah and I knitted. Life is good.
The next weekend Glynn’s Mom along with his Sister and her family came for Jaxon’s blessing. We had quite a house full.
Finally it was time to come home. Izaiah had been coughing almost the whole time I was there and I think I picked up something from him. Flying from Dallas to New Mexico I was very cold on the plane and really did not feel very good. When we got to New Mexico there was supposed to be a three hour layover but that flight was delayed. We didn’t leave until about 5:45pm I was so glad to get home. It took me more than two weeks to get over the cough and miseries. Jim and I had tickets to go to Wendover, Nv. to see “The Golden Boy’s” It was Bobby Rydell, Fabian, and Franky Avalon. Teen idols from the late fifties. the concert was for Friday night June 13th. I was still sick but we went anyway. It was really fun to see these guys.
I think that is all for today.
