Another crazy day was when we had our second child; my husband told me, “have this baby any day but Friday morning”. He had a real winner of a professor that would not let him take the test any other time. He said that the only way to get out of the test was to die!

So at 2 AM Friday morning, I started having contractions, and I told myself that it was okay and that we would just wait. That lasted until 4 AM and then I told my husband that he had to get up and take me to the hospital. So he did and the baby was born around 9:45 AM. Yes, you guess it, he missed the test. But he did graduate, so that is good. Now that baby has graduated himself. I am not sure where that time went?
