Last night Perry and I were driving home. It was about 8:30 and we started talking about what we were doing 26 years ago. Perry had been baptized about 2 weeks previously and was working hard to feed our little family. Britni was about 20 months and was just adorable with her dark, long hair. I was waiting for a baby that was a week late. We had a truck at the time that Perry decided needed some work done on it. He had been working on that when I came out and told him that he better put all the parts back on the truck because it was starting to feel like the baby was coming. He did that and then came in and started taking a shower. My contractions started coming alot harder and closer together. I went in the bathroom and told Perry, "You might want to hurry" and he throws back the curtain with soap all over him and dries off, jumps out of the shower and we head to Mamaw and Granddaddys to drop off Britni. Since we were not too sure of the reliability of the truck, Terry decided he would follow us to the hospital. Perry drove faster than I've ever seen him drive with flashers and all! It was a good thing because less than a couple of hours later, Heath came barreling into the world! I've thought about this at times and it was so typical of Heath. He gives every decision alot of thought and worry but when he makes up his mind to do something you can get on board or get out of the way! We love you Heath and hope you have an awesome birthday!

AWW..Mom that is so sweet! I had heard that story before but I love your view point on it. That is so true about Heath, and the other thing is that once he is doing it you better be ready for the long haul because he is sticking with it until you MAKE him quit! We LOVE YOU HEATH!
