History: As it says, I was born in Lexington, Kentucky on March 4 of 1978, the first child of Rhonda and Jerry Dotsey on the latter’s twenty-second birthday. Mom was turning that same age at the end of the next month, and they’d been married almost eleven months at that point.
I think I remember hearing there was a lot of snow on the ground when I was born, and I believe Aunt Robbie was at a Kentucky basketball game, which is completely forgivable. Funny enough, UK went on to beat Duke in the NCAA championship just a few weeks later.
This is the other part of your birth story… I was in labor a long time with you, Zach. It started Thursday evening, all day Friday, escalated through Friday night, and you were finally born some time around 3:30 Saturday afternoon. The point of this is not to belabor the pain issue or lay any guilt trips. Rather, it is to say that by the time you were born and I was finally served my first meal, it had been about 48 hours since I had eaten. I was soooo hungry, that I ate everything on my plate that night. And the next night. Including broccoli and brussell sprouts, and I’ve liked them ever since
