Great story!
Ummmm.....I haven't talked to him yet. I'll probably go down there later this afternoon.....or tomorrow.....or next week.....or maybe even next month.

Hopefully by that time, he'll have forgotten about it.

I wanna know why they didn't name the baby after Sdiver or his partner?

And did your partner finish her dinner?

That I don't know. After we got her FACE sheet from the admin ladies, she only had Medicaid for her insurance. Although, that really doesn't mean anything.

BTW....this was her 5th pregnancy. She had miscarried the first 2, then was able to carry the 2 girls to full term.

The 1st girl, she was in labor for 12 hours. The 2nd girl, she was only in labor for 2 hours. So little Miguel....he wasn't waiting. He definitely wanted out......why, I'll never know.

LOL.....After we got off the elevator at the hospital, and mom let out a scream saying it was coming, and we all told her NOT TO PUSH !!!!!....I had said, "So this is your first boy?"
Between pants she says, "Yes...it....is...."
Me: "You know....Shawn makes an EXCELLENT name for a boy."
Her: "We've.....already......got....a....name.....for.. ..him....." SCREAM......"He's.....going.....to.....be......nam ed.....after......my.....hus....band's....father.. ...."
Me: "Darn...."

As far as Amber finishing her dinner....Sir, I don't think she ever did.
