The wisdom of a mother

 

Today’s “quote of the day” comes from my sister…who became a mother on Mother’s Day this year…just five days ago!  When my then-fiancee, now-wife Heather came to visit my family in 2000, we got to talking about our origins.  Heather explained that she was a miracle baby, in the sense that her mom had a IUD (a popular birth control device in the 70’s) when she was conceived.  My mom was astonished.  I too was born around an IUD!  While we all marveled at the coincidence, my pithy sister gushed this utterance:

“God bless the IUD babies.”

We all decided that would look great macramed on a gift pillow at Hallmark, although none of us has patented the idea yet.  To see a picture of my new nephew, click below.
