Thirty-Five

The doctors said I would never be able to have children. My insides were too undersized to carry and deliver a baby, they said. But they underestimated what my body was capable of; they were wrong. Thirty-five years ago today when I was thirty-five, it gave birth to the most beautiful baby ever born since the beginning of Homo sapien births seventy thousand or so years ago. And I'm not exaggerating or making that up. It's 100 percent true and Snopes.com will confirm it.

I love, love, love that boy of mine. Just saying.
