happy belated birthday! strangely enough I have an almost identical story – though my parents found out a few weeks before we were born that they were expecting twins. (it’s a long, strange story with many eerie similarities to what you’ve shared – Christmas Eve in 1979 was an odd night and I was a fighting 4lbs 2oz at 6 weeks early.) Now that I’m in medicine, and on my obstetrics rotation I know that this sort of thing wouldn’t happen today – we know how to “see” things and “fix” things. I love being around when a baby comes into the world, and hope that I’m available if/when a set of twins are born. I think it’d help me to see what is possible.

I’m sorry I’m late, happy birthday! What a great tribute to Susan. Fabulous pictures. I dig the old high chair. My parents had a similar one. I can only imagine the mess my pair would have made on such a huge tabletop to work with.
