Charlee is 10!!!!!


CHARLEE CHRISTINA RIGGS

I can't believe my baby girl is 10 years old today. It seems like just yesterday I was pregnant with her and sitting next to Olga in Relief Society and having her be the first one to feel her move. (Of course, we both bawled).
Charlee was born at 11:54 pm on March 11, 1999 at Luke Air force Base Hospital in Glendale, Arizona. She was a whopping 8 lbs 4 oz and 21 inches long.
Charlee was a full 14 day's late, (she has always had her own time table). We were in the hospital for 3 days before she was born because she kept laying on her cord and going into distress, the midwife said if she doesn't come tonight we would do a c-section in the morning. Of course Miss Charlee decided to come at the last minute, 11:54pm. The first thing she did when she was born was to bite the nurse. (stubborn girl).
We had several other names picked out for Charlee, but none of them fit her, so after 2 days the doctor and nurse came in and we couldn't go home until we named her. So Brenden went home prayed, and I prayed at the hospital. I had a dream that we discussed calling her Charlee and then in the morning Brenden came in and said " why don't we call her Charlee." So the Lord told us her name and that is how we named Miss Charlee.

He knew she was totally unique!!!
