dear josh diary,
my best friend and i found out we were pregnant on the same day. then we signed up to go to the same doctor. then we went to our appointments together, (as much as we could,) then our due dates were the same day, then we both got huge, then my phone rang one saturday night as i was packing my bag to sneak to the hospital because i was in labor. it was may 29th about 10PM, i'd just walked my ASS off down at the boat races at the lake. "hello?" i answered my phone, i figured it was the unibomber calling- we were on the 'outs' but almost back on the 'ins.'
"sup mommy?" it was harvey, my best friend's husband. oh fuck me in the ass twat i thought, "guess what?" he said.
"YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME?" i screamed.
"nope," he laughed, "and he's big and beautiful woman and PERFECT."
"i'm goin now, tell her i'm right behind her and i love you guys."
i am always last. always. but 23 hours later i had my little boy. josh came on the 29th and william the 30th. i had seventeen hours of hard ass labor ahead of me that kelly got spared. but when we laid them boys on the floor next to each other- something magical happened. it was if they'd already met. sure josh was a foot longer than william from the start, but when you scooted him up to eye level- you could tell josh really got a kick out of all william's funky hair. i talked to kelly last night and we both miss our tiny infants. neither one of us can believe how fast time has gone by.
