I was born on Christmas morning, 1951. I'm told that it was storming and the roads were bad. They had a hard time calling the hospital because everyone was listening in on the party line. Dad said to hang up so he could make his call and then he would call back and tell everyone what was going on. Said the noise of phones clanging down all at once was quit loud. Dad got Mom to the hospital and then had to go to Drs. house and bring him to the hospital. (Dad had chains on the car). Older brother was born Jan. 25,1949. When they woke him up to tell him he had a new brother, all he asked was did he get his John Deere tractor. Mom was a teacher and loved the Winnie the Pooh books, so I ended up Christopher Robin. Usually had a b-day party for me on Christmas Eve. One of the families in our church also had a daughter born on Christmas, named her Merry Christine. We still go to the front of the church together for our birthdays while everyone sings to us. Chris
