In February of 1991, I went to the Coffey Castle in Aledo to help Mom, Dad, and Laura prepare for the arrival of the new baby.
On February 5, 1991, Laura went to bed. Michelle and John Dan decided soon afterwards that it was time to go to the hospital.
Early the next a.m., the phone rang, and John Dan was in the birthing room. He said things were going well. Then, he said, "It's time. Our baby is arriving" or something like that. Who could remember words at a moment like that??
Then I heard our baby cry! What a thrill! I was there by telephone, though I was really with Laura at home.
Soon Laura awoke, and we went to the hospital to see that precious new little boy, John Steven Coffey.
