  12. I like the 1965 entry. I kind of remember that day. Well couple of days before that day.
    I remember Mom coming down the stairs and saying to me I am going to be gone for a few days and when I come home I will have a new baby. I thought woo, that is news, no one told me about this before. That was when I notice her belly was big. Well Mom came back the same day and said that the baby was not ready to come yet. It remained a mystery to me for many years as to where exactly you came from. Ok it is still a mystery of where you exactly came from. I know I found floating in the sea and Mom just happened to scoop me out and save me. Well, that was the story she told me when I asked her if I was adopted. Happy Birthday little Py..
