Hiwot delivered her first baby!\u00a0 A little girl!<\/p>\n
As I have stated before, I am convinced the Creator is a bit ornery.\u00a0 Hiwot pulled some sort of shenanigan to postpone delivering a baby another week; but while she was at the hospital doing her clinical, a young woman came in from \u201coutside city\u201d in labor.\u00a0 Basically, an emergency delivery.\u00a0 The \u201cMidwifer\u201d made her do the delivery because, \u201cI am senior nurse now\u201d (Hiwot) .\u00a0 When she saw the first time mother scared and crying, Hiwot started crying also.\u00a0 The doctor said, “If you cry, you get out!”\u00a0 Hiwot said, \u201cI make myself strong.\u201d\u00a0 But the mother told the doctor, it made her feel good seeing Hiwot crying with her.<\/p>\n
Hiwot said the mother held her hand so hard, it felt like she broke it.\u00a0 \u201cWhen husband asks if mother is okay, I tell him, I think she broke my hand.\u201d\u00a0 The doctor actually gave Hiwot an ice pack to put on it.\u00a0 She says, “I can\u2019t eat well, now”.<\/p>\n
There is a great deal more she said, and I do my best to remember.\u00a0 Although her English is rough, Hiwot loves to talk and carries a conversation very well.\u00a0 I just follow every few words.<\/p>\n
But, this made Terese and me very happy and we are proud of her.\u00a0 We had a card made up for her and added some birr (Ethiopian money) to it.\u00a0 When we left the restaurant this evening, we left it in the check holder.\u00a0 When we got home, she sent us a text: \u00a0\u201cI am so happy I don\u2019t have any word to tell you jest thank you so mach.\u201d<\/p>\n
I replied back to her, \u201cThank you for bringing a new beautiful life into the world!\u201d<\/p>\n
What really touched me, she told us at the restaurant, “When I hand baby to family, I feel love!”<\/p>\n
It\u2019s amazing how people you come across, will enhance your view on Life and all its beauty!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
