If I were a book my name would be scrawled across the cover in crazy writing . Chapter 1 would read "8 pounds, healthy, and definitely not a boy ". I would have 15 chapters spanning those rainbow colored pages. Each chapter sharing a story worthy of hiding my face from embarrassment and a story that will make you cry so hard your eyes will be red for a week or longer. Page after colored page would be filled with my words, my thoughts, my feelings, and everything that has lead up to this breath and the next and the next. So many of my bright colored pages would lay in wait for the day the pen touches down to paper to share another story, another thought, or even just another breath. These rainbow colored pages would come to life and the words would dance and sing just To tell my story. If I were a book my cover and my words and my rainbow pages would be more than just a story, it would be my footprint on the world.
