Mom Thought I Would Be A Girl

Mom thought I would be a girl back in 1971.

She was surprised to learn that I was a son.

She was surprised but she wasn't disappointed in the least.

We were very close until the day when she became deceased.

When I was in Mom's womb, she thought I would be a girl instead of a boy.

But she didn't care, just knowing that I was a healthy baby brought her joy.
