The Birthday Suit

She remembered a lot of firsts:

• – the first email and then the second one
• – the first Yahoo IM chat which led to the first phone call
• – hearing his voice for the first time
• – that first account of hearing what his life was all about, in his own words
• – the planning to meet for the first time
• – that first sight of him
• – the first twinkle he put in her eyes
• – the first night, followed by the first morning
• – that first recognition that their dreams seemed to be the same

She wouldn’t trade in any of those “firsts” for all the money in the world. They made an memory in an instant.

But perhaps the memory which stood out in her mind was the one which she got  to experience … Her first birthday – Once early in her life and then again when she became a BabyGirl for the rest of her life … with him.

And that suited her just fine.
