Happy Birthday to one who gave me the title of Mom.
39 years ago, T and I were having Sunday dinner at my parents' house and I just didn't feel well. I went downstairs to lay on my brother's waterbed while everyone enjoyed their meal. We went home, I got sick a couple times, and was nervous that I might have the flu this close to having my baby. We went to the hospital at 11:00 and at 3:46 a.m. I was holding my newborn son. 39 years ago, we didn't find out the baby's gender. It was such a special moment to hear the doctor say, "Congratulations, you have a son!"
39 years...wow. I can't believe that I'll be a mom to a 40-year old next year!
How fast we grow up.
