Hi Grandma!



Well Mom, for the 14th time you are again a Grandma! Rocky and I welcomed the love of our life into the world on December 29th 2010 at 9:02pm - Cameron William Hayes, 8lb. 60z. 20in. I thought about you the entire time, through my labor, through my delivery, and every day since. I wish so badly you could be here to see him, and how beautiful and sweet he is. Every decision I make when it comes to him I ask myself what you would think. I've had many a tough moment wishing so badly I could call you for advice in the three short weeks since he arrived, and I'm sure I'll have plenty more. But even with the impression you left on my life in the time you were here, I feel better equipped for motherhood. I only hope I can be half the mom to Cameron that you were to me. When I look at him I can just hear you saying "Oh Becky, he looks so much like your baby picture!" And during delivery mom, you would have been proud of me. I did so much better with the pain than you probably would have thought. :) I love you, and trust me when I say, I've never missed you more!
