A Day With Debbie

Happy Birthday Amber...31!
I remember the night before, watching "Valley of the Dolls" on tv---then your dad coming in from his new job at Otis Engineering...he was working nights at the time, he was so tired! But off to Irving Community we went. Labor was not as bad as I thought it would be, but back then they gave you meds to help with the pain and I was floating! Your dad kept going in and out, he did not like it when I was in pain. He would come in and ask me about a name to name you, most I remember I did not like...but then he mentioned Amber and I knew that would be your name.
You were born at 1:53PM and yes, your daddy held you first! But I got my time in quickly! Both your papas and memes were there to welcome you, you were the first for papa & meme Adams---how proud they were of you!
I was in the hospital for 3 days with you then we went to meme & papa Adams to stay, then got an apartment a few weeks later...
I remember an older man stopping me one day when I had you out walking, saying, what a pretty little sack of sugar you have there! You reminded me of a Kewpie baby doll---meme kept you dressed in sweet litle dresses, you loved going to her house and also to Bible class... you were a good sleeper, still are, kind of a picky eater tho...potty trained early and easy. You became a big sister very soon after your first birthday to Cameron and you grew up very close to each other.
You were my baby doll and I had so much fun with you!
I am so proud of you, you will always hold such a special place in my heart, being my firstborn, a precious little girl!
You have always been so tender, kind-hearted, and loving!
Now, you are a mommy, to my first grand-daughter, Kaitlyn, that I love so much too!
Enjoy life, keep your tender heart and reach for the stars...always remember that your dad and I will always be here for you and love and cherish you very much and are so proud of you ! Keep your trust and faith in the Lord!
