It all begins in the last year of high school. I am sitting on the bleachers watching the guys play basketball I notice this one really good looking guy and we exchange glances. My heart melts as I watch him.. After the game I am walking down the school hall and he approches me my name is Jim Krain he say's and I reply I am Darla Smith would you like a ride home he grins at me I say sure.. And that is where it starts now Jim is very romantic he sends me roses everyday and calls me through out the day.. We are inseperable 1 year later on Valetines day Jim asks me to go to dinner with him as we finish dinner Jim gets up from his seat and gets on one knee and asks the big question will you Darla marry me and pulls a box from his shirt pocket it is what I have been dreaming of a ring.. I start crying I am so happy I tell Jim YES OH Jim Yes.. 6 Months later we are walking down the church isle infront of our friends and family.. After the wedding it is off to Jamacia for our honeymoon..

JIM ON OUR HONEYMOON

We spent a couple weeks there and then back home.. We are living in a one bedroom apartment but it is very nice just the right size for us.. At this time Jim is working for a building contractor but his real love is Police work so he apply's and is excepted he loves his work but I am so affraid for him. Harmony Montana use to be such a quite slummber town no violence but now as times have changed so has our small town.. Well it is off to work for Jim and I am spending the day cleaning this apartment I get half way done cleaning the kitchen and I get really sick on my stomache maybe it is the flu I think to myself it goes on for a week something is not right.. I call and make a Doctors appointment the nurse takes blood and tells me she will call me in a few days..

Well Jim has left for work and I am relaxing in the living room with my coffee in hand watching tv.. The phone rings (Hello) on the other end I hear this is Dr Taylor's office is Mrs Krain there? speaking I say Mrs Krain we have the blood test results you took yesterday.. What were they I gasped what is wrong with me.. Mrs Krain you are definetly pregnant.. I can not believe it I am so excited Mrs Krain you there? Oh yes I am here I tell her. Please call the office later this week and make an appointment. Oh I will thank you and we hang up.. Well for the rest of the day all I can think about is telling Jim I can not wait for him to come home.. Well it is 6pm and I hear the key in the door I rush to the door and into Jims arms. What is wrong he asks Oh honey I have got news for you good I hope he say's.. Then I tell him honey you are going to be a daddy Jim grabs me and holds me so tight I think he is going to break me in half he is so thrilled he wants a boy so bad.. That is all he talks about now.. We have to go house looking he say's this apartment is just to small..

Well I have called Shanna Lee and she should be here by the end of the month.

Our new home

We have moved into our new home it is so nice here better than the small apartment we had. My pregnancy is going along fine I felt the baby move for the first time today will not be long now. (you know how soap operas go) Jim is so sure we are going to have a boy he painted the nursery blue it is really nice. We can hardly wait for the baby to arrive.. Jims family has been coming over more often than before his brother Mike is really freaky he is constantly staring at me makes me so uncomfortable I would tell Jim but I do not want to start trouble.. His mom is something else to so controlling I can not stand her.. I heard that she was the reason his dad died but nothing was proven they had him creamated very fast that was strange.. Jim will not talk about it much maybe in time.. His mom said that she felt a presents in our house when she walked in she thinks she is a witch or something. But I can think of a few choice words for her not a witch!! Well Jim is off to work he is working nights now I hate that this house is spooky at night because it is so big you can hear every noise there is. While laying on the sofa trying to relax I hear a noise sounds like foot steps coming from the room above me do I dare go upstairs to investigate? Jim has just left for work I can not call him and I am getting very scared.....

As I walk up the steps the noise I heard earlier has stopped maybe I just thought I heard something I thought to myself. I check every room one by one there is nothing here.. Maybe Jims mother has me so freaked out with that witch nonsince.. I go back down stairs and into the kitchen I put a kettle of water on for tea maybe that will calm my nerves.. As I sit at the kitchen table drinking my tea the door bell goes off who could that be this late at night I think to my self.. I rush to the door and open it.. There is no one there I go out in the yard and look around no one to be seen.. I rush back into the house and lock the door behind me I go into the dinning room and check the slidding glass doors I am really upset now.. I go to the phone and dial the police department number and ask for Jim. The woman on the other end tells me that officer Krain is on a stake out and can not be disturbed but she say's she will leave him a message to call me.. It has been hours since I called for Jim no call back I go into the living room and lay on the couch and try to watch some tv it is 3: a.m.. I must have drifted off to sleep the clock now reads 7:a.m.. But where is Jim I go upstairs maybe I did not hear him come in I think to myself I rush to our bedroom door and open it there Jim lays sound to sleep...

Thank God Jim is home and alright I go down stairs and into the kitchen to make breakfast.. It must have been the coffee brewing or the bacon and eggs cooking that woke Jim up because he just came down stairs.. What time did you get in honey I asked him around 4.30 this morning he answered.. Why didn't you wake me I asked him you were sleeping so soundly I did not want to disturb you.. Well Jim is off work today so I quess we will spend a quite day at home together.. I went to the doctor's yesterday and it will not be long now the baby will be here.. As Jim and I sit out side enjoying the fresh air I feel my first contration I am in so much pain.. Jim helps me back into the house as I sit on the couch my water breaks Jim calls the doctor and it is off to the hospital.. We finally arrive and the pain is so much worse the doctor checks me and the babys head is in position... Dr Taylor sends the nurse out of the room to get Jim it is time Jim runs into the room as the Doctor is telling me to push hard bare down he yells I AM I scream at him.. Jim grabs my hand (wrong thing to do) Jim yells let go you are breaking my hand... The next thing I hear is it's a boy Jim and I both start crying they lay the baby on my chest I count his fingers and toes he is beautiful... What are you nameing him the nurse asks us James Jack Krain Jr we tell her.. I am so glad this is over.... Well the baby is finally here he is so beautiful looks just like his daddy... The doctor say's I need to spend a couple days here at the hospital.. Jim comes to see us all the time a couple times he brought some friends by to see his son.. He is such a proud daddy.. I go down to the nursery alot and sit and hold my bundle of joy he weighted in at 7lbs 5oz and 19 inches long, black hair and big green eyes and he has the lungs but I really do not mind his crying... I wish Shanna would call me I have not heard from her in a while.. She is going to be surprised.. I might have Jim try and call her tonight and let her know her godson has arrived.. There is a woman named Pam in the bed next to mine I feel so sorry for her she lost her baby this morning I have tried talking to her but she wants to be left alone.. Her mother came into see her and Pam started yelling at her and her mom left and vowed never to come back.. You would think her mom would understand takes all kinds... I do hope the doctor lets us go home tomorrow it would be nice....... Well today is the big day the doctor is releasing the baby and I to go home.. Jim will be here soon to pick us up can not wait.. As I sit in the chair the nurse brings Jack into the room Mrs Krain she asks that is me I answer her she checks my wrist band and the babys and hands him to me with a smile and then leaves the room.. I catch Pam in the next bed staring at the baby from the corner of my eye I do not know if I should say anything to her or not.. She looks so hurt and lonely.. As I am playing with the baby I hear a voice (can I hold him?) It is Pam I tell her that I do not think that would be a good idea she goes back to her bed and pulls the curtain back with out a word.. I can hear her crying I go over to the bed and look around the curtain Pam the reason I said that was because of what happen I tell her.. What do you think I am going to take off with him or something she snaps at me. And then yells go away.. At that moment Jim enters the room are you 2 ready to go home he asks smiling.. Waiting on the doctor I reply.. Jim sences something is wrong.. What is it he asks me I point to Pams bed and shake my head.. At that moment the doctor comes into the room he asks me questions and then releases us.. The nurse brings the wheelchair to the room and we are set to go home.. Goodbye Pam I say sofly but there is no response.. And we leave the room and head for home!!!!! __._,_.___
