Mila Marie Strayer

I must not leave out the newest addition to our family via my sister. Little Mila was born on October 23, 2011 and the little stinker didn’t even wait for me to get there. I think my sister called at around 3:15am telling me they were headed to the hospital. Trouble is my mom and I had to drive all the way from Shoreline to Tacoma…45 minutes with no traffic. We were about halfway there when we got a call that miss Mila had arrived just 20 minutes after they got to the hospital! It brought to mind memories of my experience with Coleman. (Different story for a different day.) I was less than proud when the first thing my sister said to me when I arrived was, “It was just like what happened to you when Coleman was born, except I didn’t say the F word!” I guess I should have been proud of her? Mila is beautiful and I love her.
