Sharing Birthdays

Both of my grandmothers birthdays are in July, same as me. Mawmaw (my dads mom) is July 18th, mine is July 23rd, and Gmommy (my moms mom) is July 28th. So over the years we have celebrated together a few times.

Gmommy & I on my first B-day

My first birthday was a great one and everyone was so happy that I even made it that far. lol.On mothers day just a few months before my birthday we were visiting Gmommy and Gdaddy. It was time to eat and I was in my highchair chanting for a hotdog. I then stood up in my highchair which of course is never a good thing. As you can imagine it fell backwards and I along with it. Now as bad as a toddler falling out of their highchair sounds mine gets worse because I fell into Gmommys bowfront china cabinet. I took out one of the glass doors, several of the shelves, and plenty of dishes and glasses all with my head. They say I layed perfectly still on the kitchen floor in a pool of blood. They thought I was dead. Everyone was in shock until I started screaming! My mom was frantic of course and my dad well he couldn't even come in the kitchen. hahaha. Mom, Gmommy and my Aunt Darlene got me in the car. They got into a short argument about getting me a hotdog to make me stop crying. Someone finally gave me a hotdog and sure enough I stopped crying. lol. They rushed me off to the hospital where I got some stitches in several places on my head. Gdaddy and my dad had to stay at the house until my dad could calm down. lol. To this day I still have 2 scars on my head where no hair grows from where I fell.

Mawmaw and I celebrating our birthdays together.

Also lucky I got made it to this bday too. hahaha When I was 2 we we went to a bday party for a cousin of mine at chucky cheese. When the adults looked at me and noticed my lips were turning blue they rushed me to the hospital. I was having an ashama attack and spent a few days in the hospital. It is actually the earliest memory that I have.(more detailed story of it in this past post earliest memory)
