The Funny Face birthday cake, as per request.

On this day three years ago:

It has been over 12 hours since my first contraction at reading series Pontiac Quarterly in the basement of Toronto’s Drake Hotel. I was able to sleep on and off and things were much the same by morning. Sharp but manageable contractions hitting every ten to twenty minutes and lasting under a minute. I went about my day and sent hubby to work. He got sent home.
