Pictured Left to Right (my baby, my middle child, and my 1st born James with his girlfriend). It is hard to believe that 20 years ago today, I gave birth to James. It was during the 1st Gulf War and Kerry was in Kuwait. I was surrounded by my mom, Kerry's mom, my Aunt's Maureen and Phoebe....and various cousins and other family members. It was unusual during those days to have anyone in the delivery room because in 1991 most hospitals didn't have the fancy labor, delivery, and recovery rooms. It was an unusual night. I was the only one in labor the night of March 8th and I think the whole hospital knew our story. I had every nurse at my side taking care of me from the maternity ward and when it came time for James to show his bald little head (at 7:19 am on the 9th of March) the nurses and doctor allowed several of my family members to be in the "delivery room" (against hospital policy).
I am so proud that he has grown into such a fine young man I can't believe he is already 20
