Evelyn's Ponytail

During my surgery, I called out in wonder "is she a girl?!", as they tugged and pulled on my numbed up belly. ...And I'll never forget my doctors response.

"Yeah, shes a girl! And shes got a shitload of blond hair!".

Blond? No... wrong baby, sorry. You must have grabbed the wrong one while you were in there. Don't sew me up until you've gotten your babies straight. My babies have brown hair.

Well, no, he was right. Sort of. It was the right baby, but- that blond hair was actually red.



And now all of that beautiful red hair fits into a cutesie little whale spout ponytail.
