Seventeen

Happy Birthday to Media Girl - she turns seventeen today.

Looking back, Media Girl has always done her best to make the world march to her beat.

It started even before she was born.

Media Girl was nearly two weeks late before she let Motivated Mom know she was finally on her way. I hurried Motivated Mom to the hospital where nurses and the doctor gathered around. We waited - and waited - and waited.

Since Media Girl was already behind schedule, the decision was made to administer medication in order to speed things up. Then we all waited - and waited - and waited.

The doctor finally said he was going down the hall to take a nap.

Media Girl gave the doctor just enough time to doze off, then decided to make her entrance.

Media Girl was now waiting for no one. A nurse rushed to get the doctor who barely had time to wash his hands before welcoming Media Girl into the world.
