I will NEVER forget that day.. I was thinking glad it's not me!! No but really, I remember hearing you scream from the waiting room and your Mom crying because she couldn't do anything for you. Such a touching moment!

Erin Hey I totally forgot how I traumatized you when Derek was born- funny thing with Drew even though it was a lot quicker I was a lot louder and meaner with out Drugs.....

I remember when Steve told me that you were pregnant - he called and invited me to lunch (I had to pay...go figure), and when I had my mouth full, he asked "so....how do you feel about being a grandma?" I wanted to cry I was so happy, but also scared for both of you. You've made it now - Derek and Drew are the light of my life!!!
