  • My Birth

    My Birth

    I was born on a Thursday, which was particularly inconvenient for my mom, because Thursdays are cleaning days and God forbid the house isn't spotless. Actually, she made my dad go home and clean while she was in labor because she couldn't stand the idea of the house being dirty if anyone came over to see me for the first time.

    My First Birthday

    My first birthday was great. All of my family came over and I had a Winnie the Pooh cake, which I don't remember, but my mom says I was very happy about it.
  • My First Time Swimming

    My First Time Swimming

    I consider this a significant event in my life because I love to swim now and I've always felt very comfortable in water, probably because I was introduced to it so early on. My dad thought the best way to teach me to swim was the way his older brothers had taught him - just throw me in the water and see what happens. My mom wasn't too happy about this when she heard.
  • My First Vacation

    The first time I went on vacation, I went to Poland. It was so much fun. My mom always tells me that I didn't know what a horse was, so she had to explain that it was like a zebra without stripes. It's kind of crazy that I knew what a zebra was but not a horse. Anyways, Poland was incredibly pretty and I go there almost every summer now.
