Four years ago today at 7:58pm, my number one daughter, Camille Lorraine, made her debut! My pregnancy with Camille was pretty uneventful. Of course I was a little more tired because I had to keep up with her big brother but I was never sick, too achy, or experienced any of the other unpleasant feelings some pregnancies can bring. It was darn near perfect.
Camille's first year of life was spent with her family of course but also with her extended family of faculty and students at San Francisco State University. Yes, my baby was helping mom bring home the bacon at three months old. She is highly gifted you know. We made the commute, traveled to meetings in SoCal, taught classes together (she had 15 or so baby sitters in my class)...Camille was my road dog! I loved it and so did so many folks around us. I think her presence made coming to work for everyone just a little more enjoyable. Camille and I were able to build such a strong attachment and I am convinced that she was such a mellow baby and now a loving child because I literally wore her for 6 hours a day. Thanks ergo!!!
I won't go on with years 1 to 3 but I will say my Camille continues to bring so much joy (and a little frustration) to my life. She is beautiful, independent, loving, curious and a serious HAM!! Happy Birthday to my favorite girl, my sweet baby...
