There were heavy sighs followed by eye rolls. I didn’t think my request was that demanding, but apparently I had pushed too far. Again. “Please? If you just smile nicely and look like you love each other, this will be over fast, and I won’t ask for any more!” That promise worked just long…
My first child was a boy. Or at least, that’s what I told everyone. There was not a doubt in my mind that the baby growing inside me was a boy. And so I did the sort of things that anyone would do if they were a hormonal, mildly OCD pregnant woman with anxious tendencies…
