The baby was due on Oct. 7. Were it a boy, it would be named Brian Patrick. A girl? Jennifer (just like every third baby girl born in 1980) or Wendy (egads).
Apparently, the baby, very much a female, wasn't keen on any of the names suggested by her parents. So she decided to give them an extra few weeks to come up with something better.
Which is why, I believe, she waited until November 3 to make her appearance. The tired new mom and dad named her something else, something a little more unique. And it turned out that this name suited her well.
A valuable lesson was learned that day - hold out for what you want. And two of my key personality traits were identified: a tendancy to run late and a fierce stubborn streak.
