The baby was not going to wait for paramedics to arrive, so Seminole County Dispatcher Caroline Walker got a crash course in labor and delivery talking Brian and Aisha Webb step-by-step over the phone on how to deliver their newborn baby girl.

On Friday, four months after baby Katherine Rose was born, the couple and dispatcher thought they’d be meeting for the first time. But when they got face to face, they realized they’d actully known each other through church for years.
“That is nothing short of a miracle,” Aisha said. “It had to come from God that she was the one who answered the phone of all people.”
