My wife and I were having steak dinner at home last night when her water suddenly broke, 2 weeks ahead of schedule! We weren’t expecting it but 7 hours later in the wee morning hours we welcomed our first child, a beautiful baby girl to the world. I was planning to wear my Reverso but nothing from last night went to plan, except that my wife and daughter are happy and healthy. I was simply wearing the watch I wore to work yesterday, which isn’t a bad choice either! Which watch do you choose for momentous occasions? Have a happy Friday everyone.
Haha, luckily our healthcare system is woefully understaffed…

So I was able to take this pic in private. Although understaffed, they really do an excellent job. Oh no, don’t get them started on the rendezvous! I really like the shooting star they released this year.
Congratulations, what a beautiful girl. Brings back memories to the birth of my eldest son, also born on May 13th, 24 years ago. All the best to the three of you.
Your world is about to flip upside down but in a great way!! I cannot even remember which watch I was wearing. I was just so focused on being there for my wife and praying that my kids were healthy. I do recall listening to my favorite artist when they were born and the song being “I saw God today” by the great George Strait
Everything happened so fast, one minute we were eating dinner and about to watch a show, the next we were just getting the fluid tested to confirm it was amniotic. When we arrived to the hospital she was contracting and was already dilated 5cm! It will be a huge change and an adventure. We’re excited!
The birth of a child is such a blessing. Many wonderful memories are yet to be made for you and your young family. May the years ahead be filled with joy and good health.
