Happy Birthday, Baby! Umpteen years ago, I just missed birthing one of my babies on this special day, and my brother still gives me the berries for not getting the job done on the right. He couldn’t have walked a mile in my shoes that day...’specially after the water broke-my shoes were like small ponds and I was three floors away from the delivery room. I had a Marine escort, for crying out loud. Brother just wants too much ; )
