We're having a baby!

After Andy and I were married, I was in nursing school and he had just joined the Army.  After he had been gone for 2 weeks, I found out I was pregnant with  Shaylie.  I was living at home with mom and dad while I finished my last semester of nursing school.  I was really nervous.  I had to call the Red Cross so that I could break the news to Andy as it was, that was the only way to reach him at the time.  So I told him the news and he asked if I had told my parents yet.  I told him I wanted him to be the first to know but I would tell them that night. 

   Mom was in the bathroom fixing her hair when I said ,"mom we are going to have a baby."
She said, "I don't think that is a very good idea."
  I was stunned...

  I couldn't think of anything else to say except "too late".

Then she told me she would be thrilled to have another grandbaby.
Love, Pam
