not today, please

I think you all have an inkling of how very, very eager Mike and I are for Baby to make her appearance in this world. But I have to admit that there's a part of me that's hoping she won't be born today. Apparently "4/20" (aka 4:20, aka 420) is some sort of drug reference and, quite frankly, I'd rather my daughter not be associated with that straight out of the gates. So this morning I did a little google research to find out exactly what "4/20" means for the subset of the population that I am clearly not a part of. I should have known that Snopes would have the answer! (Since I'm unable to copy and paste the info, you'll have to click through the link. Sorry!)

After reading the Snopes article, I guess it wouldn't be the end of the world for Baby to be born today. For some reason I thought the drug reference was more scandalous than that. I could live with an April 20th birthday for Baby.

Except that now I'm hoping she won't share a birthday with Hitler...
