We have babysat each other's kids, we've shared tips about raising our kids, we have begged for prayer for our kids, and we were both in the rooms when we each gave birth to a kid. We've been through it all... So, Day 27 was hopping on the first flight out of NYC to get back to see this little girl be born!!
Just in case I missed the birth, I gave the JetBlue ticket taker a metro pass that still had a couple bucks on it. When I gave it to him he said "I don't really ever take the train, but I can give it to people as a souvenir." I don't even know what that means, and it took me a while to realize that that was probably a huge waste... But whatever, I was gonna see baby girl enter this world!
Then she was born.
Twenty minutes before my plane landed.
Which I found to be a very selfish start for her. Nonetheless, miss Sadie Marie Robinson came into this world with a beautiful face and the tiniest, most edible little ears you ever did see.
You can't tell, but that ear is the size of my thumbprint. I want it on a key chain.
Since I missed the birth, Day 27 was really just wasting a metro ticket.
For Day 28, I was in line at the grocery store with some friends, buying some personal items (eh hem, that's really all you need to know...) and since I am truly a seventh grader trapped on the body of a, well, let's be honest, the body of a seventh grader... I was giggling about the personal nature of my personal items. For general informational purposes, you should probably be made aware that giggling makes the cashier so uncomfortable... and if your item is really worth giggling over, then you should buy that cashier a candy bar.
She seemed pleasantly surprised, probably because she hasn't ever had a customer with so little maturity, but maybe also because she didn't see that Snickers coming!
