A year ago yesterday, Devin and I had a round of afternoon baby-making sex and then went off to Berkeley to see a musical based on Beowulf. Meanwhile, sperm were swimmering inside me. Two days later, on June 9, they found a ripe egg, joining forces to create the being that eventually became our little girl. A few days later, I had to stay home from work because I was feeling inexplicably tired and queasy. A week or so after that, two pink lines showed up on the pee stick.
So tomorrow’s kind of a birthday for her, although it’s the kind that nobody really celebrates. :)
