My Birthday

I was born July 4, 1969 in Murray, UT at the Cottonwood Hospital at 4:41 on a Friday afternoon. I was 6 lbs. 14 oz. and was 20 inches long. I was the oldest daughter to Ray and Arlene Wall and the oldest granddaughter on both sides of the family, not the oldest grandchild. My Grandma Shaw was so excited and wanted to tell everyone that her first granddaughter has arrived. She tried to call her friends, but they were all out of town celebrating the 4th. She was disappointed not to be able to share the good news. People used to think I was a boy because I had no hair, so they glued a ribbon on my head. My mom made this cute scrapbook page for me to keep in my Book of Remembrance.
