Sunday will mark six years since I gave birth to my favorite little monster, Kamy. I had to be induced since apparently she liked being inside me so much she never wanted to come out. I was over a week past my due date, and I was miserable. After sixteen hours of labor (only 6 of which were actually painful), my daughter was born. She was 9lbs 1oz, 20.5 inches long. Yes, I had a 9 pound baby. Ouch – that’s all I’m saying.

We are having a birthday party for her on Sunday, at Wild Kingdom; an “inflatable” party venue for kids. I know she is looking forward to it, because she has been counting down the days until her party all week long.

She reminds me of me with the countdown, the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree.

Mother of a Six Year Old,
