"Surprise, I'm expecting", Momma said about a year after the family moved to Ashland, KY. I guess after Dad came home from his last tour-of-duty, a little "togetherness" happened and thus a petite, dark-haired, brown-eyed little girl was born in January of 1963. I'm not sure how or why but I remember the view outside my Mother's hospital window from King's Daughters Hospital. Maybe it's because they talked about it so much...that Momma held me up at the window while Dad stood there below with my Big Brother and Sister looking up at me. The introduction was powerful, I'm sure. The cozy family of four now had a new number of five.

I actually remember this moment very vividly in our simple home when eating around the table meant so much to family and friends. |
