27 years ago , it was a Saturday morning, and after being 13 days overdue (i was due on Nov 1st and scheduled to give birth on the 16th), I woke up in labor. My first baby , who was then 7, was induced, so I was excited to experience the "honey, its time" moment. I also never thought it would happen again - after 3 miscarriages , those first 20 weeks we were walking on eggshells. I argued with Paul the entire trip to the hospital because he wouldn't stop at the yardsale at the end of my street- THEY WERE SELLING BABY STUFF!! I still swear, we could have got the stuff for free. 😄 It wasn't until around 5:30 pm that our beautiful, perfect little goblin was born.
33 years ago today, it was a Saturday evening, i baked a whole chicken with stuffing and mashed potatoes. It's funny the things you remember. We ate so good that paul fell asleep on the sofa and I decided to leave the mess and take our first beautiful baby (now 34) for a walk in her stroller- we ended up a half mile away at our best friend's house. It was there that Paul called with bad news. He rushed to pick me up and drive me across town to the same hospital where I was born, the hospital where my father was transported to - at 45 years old, a bad heart combined with heavy drug use- he was gone.
Things happen for a reason, I don't believe anything is by chance. November 14th went from one of the worst days of my life, to one of the greatest ❤️
Happy Birthday Sally 🎂 You will always be a gift from above ❤️
