Mom said I was here, Dad said not yet. Mom said “She is here!” Dad lifts the sheet and yelled “Damn, get the nurse!” They don’t see the world the same. Mom rolls her eyes as she tells this each year. Mom is a nurse. Dad works with minds. HIs mom taught dance. His dad drank. Her mom said much. Her dad just smiled. We moved and we moved more. At least once a year. I dance. I ride bikes. I say things they said no to. Don’t know who I think I am.
Think back....
