So let me set the scene. I had just gotten home from work. I got in comfy clothes, kissed everyone hello, and was just settling down with a drink for what I thought was a relaxing evening and then BAM!, it came from left field. "Mom", Jamie asked, "Did they cut the skin off of my penis when I was born?"
Whoa, whoa, what???!!!
"You know", he continued, "Do I have a circumcised penis?"
I am pretty sure the following is an accurate representation of my face.
I am also pretty sure that the following is an accurate representation of Jake's face as he realized he just dodged a bullet. 
To continue with the story, I fumbled along the best I could under the circumstances. It turns out this week is the Human Growth and Development classes. I had signed the slip weeks ago eager to pawn off that task on someone else, but I had forgotten all about it being this week. I am so not old enough to be dealing with this! To top it all off, today is only Tuesday, there are still three more days of progressively more complicated stuff to come. I think now may be a good time to take up drinking....

I found your blog on faces of loss, faces of hope. I am so sorry for your loss. I too lost my baby, Lily Katherine, who was stillborn at fullterm on March 16, 2010. It's good to find people who 'get it' in the blogging community. I'd love to have you follow along on my blog as well; www.roseandherlily.blogspot.com
Thank you very much. I will check it out. I am so sorry for your loss. This is a terrible way to have something in common and meet people, but the only people who can truly understand are those who share your grief. If you ever need anything, just message me.
