On this day in 1987

29 August 1987 – Off to the delivery room! (Ryszard Kleszczynski photo)
26 years ago today, at the Grace Maternity Hospital in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Mother LFM (Izabella) gave birth to Mrs. LFM’s sister Dorothy (AKA Sister LFM). I offer this information in celebration of that occasion, and to set the stage for the picture above, taken by expectant Father Ryszard just before departure for that last delightful bit of labour called … well, labour. I love this picture both because it’s as cute as hell, and because I get no small amount of delight from the way the Mother of the soon to arrive Small Fierce Mammal is peeking around her mum’s belly. Yes, that excited, happy little girl with the doll is Mrs. LFM (you decide which is which). I didn’t know the Kleszczynski family in those days, and I was 30 years old when the picture was taken.
Happy birthday Dorothy!
My sister’s birthday today too!
