E

East of Eden

That's the book I was reading when I was pregnant with Day.  I sat for hours on the screened porch of our little stone cabin on Beckmann Hill, reading and listening to Willie Nelson (just a young unknown dude at the time) singing "Georgia On My Mind" and feeling homesick.  We couldn't afford the tickets to hear him perform live but Floore's was only a couple of miles away, easy to hear from our cabin on the hill.

I went into labor on my 23rd birthday--but Daisy waited until after midnight so she'd have her very own birthday.
