Megan has always known what she wanted and when she was going to do what she needed to get it. We have always joked that we did not let her come when she wanted to so she made us wait as long as she could. Megan was born on election day 1984. We drove to the hospital in the wee hours of the morning with her brother and sister peacefully sleeping in the backseat of the car. The 120 mile drive took us about an hour. We forgot to wear a watch and the clock did not work so we timed her contractions with the mile posts. It was a fun drive. By the time we arrived, she once again decided that she was no longer ready to make an appearance! Lucky for all of us the doctor had a different idea. The problem was that she had decided she wanted to come with her cousin so she waited three weeks to open her eyes and make any noise. When she saw him, she did indeed open her eyes and she has not stopped talking.
