My Story...

I think this is the third time I’ve started writing a blog post for this contest.  I thought about not even writing at all.  Mostly because I haven’t really believed I can win it.  And the reason I think I can’t win is because I’m not really sure what I want my story to be.  
I know how my story started.  If I was going to write my story as a book, I’d like the first paragraph to go something like this:
“It was February in Kentucky.  For most of the state, that means it’s the midst of the college basketball season and the excitement and tradition that is the University of Kentucky Wildcats.  But for one particular couple of Pokeberry Road, it was time for a baby to be born.  That baby was me.”
