A baby changes everything!

A baby changes everything !
I got back from London monday night . . . just in time to get the call. Hope Morgan decided to come a bit early !
I booked the next flight out of Birmingham into Charlotte.
As I landed, I got the news that they were doing an emergency c-section. I raced from the gate to the rental car desk . . . Apparently this is a big NASCAR weekend. No rental cars available.
Panic was washing over me.
Then a kind man ~ with a British accent ~ asked if I needed a cab. I think he was my angel. As he was driving quickly to the hospital, he prayed with me. How often do you find a praying cab driver with a London accent in the NASCAR capitol?
I am thrilled to say that Mom and baby are doing fine. She is so precious, and of course perfectly beautiful.
A baby changes everything.

What a sweet shot! I love the story too. I must admit to being a bit jealous though. My daughter was due with our first grandbaby today and we are still waiting.....
Congrats to you though! :)

What an amazing and happy story. So delightful and yet.. yes, it was a God-thing.. a horseman with his carriage to transport the grandmother to the new granddaughter! Enjoy!!

Cleary, British Praying Nascar Angel Man was meant to be.
Right there, right time.
Why do we worry?
