I was alone in my room, a meshing of my childhood bedroom and our bedroom here, and gave birth. I looked around and wondered where everyone was.
Where’s Ross, why am I at home, I thought.
My baby was blue. Blue like a blueberry. But as he just laid there (this is when I found out it was a he), he slowly turned pink, starting from his toes and moving upwards. He was fine.
I then figured I had to name him something and decided on one of the names Ross and I had discussed. I wasn’t so sure I liked it, but woke up before I fully decided."
