Aaron We Love You!!



Today marks one year since my sister came and told me that she was pregnant!! I remember it like it was yesterday. Kim had called me a few days before and asked if she could borrow $30 to go to the doctor, but she had told me that she was going to the doctor because at the time she was considering having surgery done on her sinuses. I loaned her my credit card with strict instructions to bring it back to me right after her appointment, because I love my sister but she's not the best at having a credit card at her disposal! She comes into the bank and gives me my credit card back and then tells me to come outside, well we are standing outside the bank and she tells me Kelly I didn't go to the doctor about my surgery, and immediately I started crying (as Brian would say I do about everything) and knew exactly what she was going to tell me she was PREGNANT!! I was the first person she had told...she hadn't even told Guy it was a for sure thing yet!! She told me to keep it quiet, because she was going to tell Guy and our parent's that night!! Both of my parents called me just thrilled but also wanting to know why and how I'd kept that secret from them!! We were all so excited and just couldn't wait for Aaron to get here, I will admit that at first I wanted a niece, but now I can't imagine my life without my Aaron Aaron as I like to call him!! We thought we'd all just die waiting for Kim's due date to get her and it came and went and still no baby. Aaron decided he was going to make his entrance into this world just when he wanted to!! I will never forget Guy calling me on October 2nd and telling me that they were at the hospital, but that they weren't sure they were staying. Well that was all I needed to hear and Brian and I were in the car and off to the hospital with my Lil Bubba right behind us. Lil Bubba & I couldn't wait to meet our nephew and there was no doubt in our minds that we weren't going to not be the first ones there! Our family and Guy's parent's crowded into the waiting room and waited and waited and finally at 2:37 am Guy Aaron Barker was born!! Lil Bubba was asleep on the floor and I remember waking him up and telling him Aaron was here!! The first time I held Aaron I told him that we'd all been waiting a really long time to meet him!!
Aaron,
Uncle Brian and I love you so much!! It always makes me so happy to see your cute lil chipmunk cheeks and to see you smile and talk to us!! We have had a great four months with you and can't wait for many more!! I love you my lil Aaron Aaron!!
Love,
Aunt Kelly!!
