mark your calendars

I just read a post elsewhere on the 'net that babies are more often born in the pre-dawn hours of Tuesdays that fall under a full moon. I don't know if the Tuesday connection is accurate, but I do remember the L&D nurses telling us that their busiest delivery days are, indeed, under full moons.

I looked up Evyn's birthdate - 4am on a Tuesday - and sure enough, she was born under a full moon! On the waning side, but full nonetheless.

Then I looked up the lunar phase chart for March, and the date that corresponds, moon-wise, with Evyn's birth is March 12th. So, mark your calendars for March 12th - if there is any truth to this full moon theory, we just might have a baby that day :)
