Happy Birthday Daphne



Daphne was born on this morning in 1968, that morning I awoke at 7:30 AM and one hour and 6 minutes later, she was born. A simple labor, and a big baby, largest in the nursery, weighing almost 9 lbs.

Daphne is my daughter and my friend, She is patient (like me) and takes good care of everyone, is the best Mom ( learned from me). Well someone has to take the credit here,..Smiling!

I was in the hospital 6 days, could have stayed a 7th, but was completely tired of being in the hospital, so I drove myself,f and my baby home and work as if I had never had a baby at all. 6 days in a hospital seems it will cure anything!

I weighed 136 when she was born. Before I became pregnant I weighed 100 lbs. I was at 100 lbs again within 6 weeks of her being born. I weighed 8'6" when I was born. My Mother weighed 13 lbs at birth! My Grandmother weighed 100 lbs when my Mother was born! My Mom was the last of 5 kids.

I just returned home from Daphnes, and it was so nice to be there with all of them, I just wish I could have been there for her birthday today.

Happy Birthday Daph!
