September 5th, 2002 is one of my 3 favorite dates ever! It's Bobbye's birthday. I can't believe 20!!! She hates when I tell the story, so...I talked about this a little bit the other day in my post; a \letter to my 21 year old self
Her due date was estimated between the last of September and the first of October. She wonders why I don't remember her actual due date..It was 20 years and it was a high-risk pregnancy...And, oh yeah, did I mention...IT WAS 20 YEARS AGO?!?!?!
It was the first anniversary after 9/11 and I didn't want her to be born on the 11th. I didn't want her to have to deal with the stigma of what happened that day being associated with her birthday. Everyone deserves to have a unique and happy day on their birthday.
We got to choose the day (night) she was born and even the doctor and nurses who delivered her.
The nurses gave me a surprise baby shower the night before. They gave Dalon an "I'm a big brother shirt".
Bobbye is a beautiful girl inside and out. She works in a veterinary office and has joined the National Guard. She will be going to basic training soon.
So, Bobbye, Happy Birthday, and I can't wait to see what GOD does in your life! I love you!!!1
