DISCOVERING MY HERITAGE DURING THIS PROJECT I DISCOVERED A LOT OF THINGS ABOUT MY HERITAGE THAT I FEEL MAY HAVE BEEN VERY IMPORTANT FOR ME TO KNOW ABOUT IN THE FUTURE.

WHEN MY MOM GOT TO THE EMERGENCY ROOM I CAME OUT HEADFIRST AND THE DOCTOR NOTICED I WAS A GIRL THREE-MIN. LATER. IT TOOK THEM A WEEK TO GET A NAME FOR ME! WELL DONE MOM!
