Join Ruth's mom as she tells the story of coming to China to witness the birth of her first grandchild. In this very personal retelling, we get to hear all about Ruth's first birth--through the eyes of her mother. Patty shares first hand about what it was like to travel to China (on her own!) and then support Ruth through the last weeks of pregnancy, the birth, and the post birth documentation process. Hear her impressions of China birth culture, her worries, and many her surprises as she walked along side Ruth and Nathan through this momentous time of their lives. Listen to the end for her tips for potential grandparents preparing to travel to China for the birth of their own children!
