Bringing Into This World What They Created Together... All Alone

8:00

A mere few hours away.

Vee will go into the hospital to deliver little Carter via C-section.

Without her husband.

I've posted about Vee before. She lost her husband on November 9th, 2010. She has 2 other children, Faith and Caleb. Today Carter will be born.

Vee is so ready not to be pregnant, but she is not so ready to do it alone. I was up thinking about her and praying for her all night. Imagine that: Your rock, the person you love with all your heart, the person who helped create the baby inside you... cannot be there.  You have to do it alone. Sure, you have others who care so much about you, but it's just not the same.

However, I know Jeremy is there. He will be there is spirit. Vee won't be doing it along, but it will still be hard. I'd say this is probably one of the worst and the happiest days of her life. She's bringing a precious life into this world. She is overjoyed. On the other hand, Jeremy doesn't get to share in the joy.

This is not meant to make you sad. Jeremy never got to meet Carter on Earth, but he had the amazing opportunity to be with him in Heaven. Now it is Carter's turn to come to Earth, but he will always know his Daddy.

I'm asking you to pray, please please pray for Vee today. I can't stop praying. Pray for a safe delivery. Pray  that Jeremy will be there in spirit. Pray.

I cannot really do justice to Vee's words. Read these posts on from her beautiful blog to get the idea (You might want some tissue!):

This is it

Carter is coming into this world a loved little boy.

God be with Vee on this emotional day.

I know He will be.

God Bless,

Sydney
