Vicente Pena: The Day He Was Born

The Day He Was Born

Dedicated: To Gael Gregorio Meneses

From: Vicente Julio Gutierrez

Vicente, Vicente WAKE UP!!!!!!!!! I’m tired I don’t want school, I said in a exhausted manner.

NO, not to day said my dad, YOUR MOTHERS WATER BROKE he said excitedly but I could tell he was a little nervous at the same time. At that very moment those words suddenly filled my body with  excitement   Those very words staid in my mind for good and I knew it  your mother’s water broke, your mother’s water broke over and over again as if I was repeating those exact words  again  and  again it staid on my mind like a magnet .

I rushed down stairs and saw a big beautiful smile on my mother’s face it was like an angels smile a smile that only an angel could have. We got ready as fast as we could. Yet my mom remained beautiful more beautiful than ever. I was so curious to see my one and only baby brother for the first time. Those were my last hours, being an only child.

When we finally arrived at the hospital my mom immediately called my grandma, aunt, cousins, and everybody pretty much. Yet we were told the baby was due earlier than we thought the whole family was goanna get here, everyone wanted the majority of the family there at least. We were very disappointed we were crying we didn’t want the family to miss not even a second of this moment this very important and special moment.

“Hello, you have visitors,” the nurse said. Its them, my mom said they were goanna be there. At that point nothing was going wrong nothing at all finally she was finally giving birth  as soon as I laid eyes on my beautiful baby brother I knew at that moment he was the best baby in the world .

Now its 2011 Gael is one and a half and we all thank God for that special day!
