While I was suffering through my freshman year of college at Gardner-Webb University, Rachel Lovelady was my fabulous next door neighbor. There were so many nights and days where we would do nothing but laugh and talk as we shared our complaints and sorrows (mostly boy problems) to each other. She was there for me through so much and was so busy through it all. She worked and went to school yet managed to make time for friends and school work.
With shower parties and LL Cool J jokes- she made it easy to love her- and she is worth every bit of it. In May, when Joel and I were married- she honored me by standing at the front with me as my bridesmaid.
This past Friday, Rachel gave birth to a little boy by the name of Kingston David Hardie. He was 8lbs and 11oz, a beautiful little boy. I arrive a couple of hours before she gave birth and it was so wonderful to see her and to watch as Daddy Jabir sat by her side and sang to her belly.
Thanks for letting me be a part of this glorious day. Here are a few pictures of the awesome day- it was dark in the room so I didn't use a flash, but they turned out alright ;) Enjoy!
Waiting..... delay after delay... I know Rachel was ready!
Mommy and baby- just a few minutes after his arrival
