20 years ago... a fighter was born

It's amazing how fast time goes by after you have a child. It seems just like yesterday that my boss at McD's was sending me home, around 11:00 am, so that I would not go into labor there in the restaurant.

After I went home I decided to take a nap... which didn't last too long, because I woke up with some back pain around 2p. So, I decided to take a shower, keeping a watch near by to time, to make sure it was truly labor pains.

I ended up going to the hospital & at 10:57p my one & only child was born, a son.

When he was born, they said he was definitely fed well. *giggles* I said it was all them Big Mac's! (Actually I ate good while pregnant.)

One thing I do remember during the labor was that a few minutes before he was born they jokingly asked if I wanted to way until after midnight. I'm like, NOOOOOO!

When I received the picture above I said he would be a fighter. I wasn't expecting it to be he & I would fight all the time. Though I do have to say he is getting better with his older age.

Still... he has a long way to go. And that another story for another time.

Time to wrap this up because 1/2 time of the USC vs Ohio State game is almost over & time to get it going again.

Hope you enjoyed this trip down memory lane.

For my son, if he ever sees this....

  3. I know what you mean, time certainly does seem to go a lot quicker when you've got a child. I hope he comes to realise that 'Mum knows best'. :)
