Janikovszky Éva - Be Glad It's a Girl!

Some things you feel before they happen. Especially when you1re expecting a baby. I wasn1t interested in what it would be, because I knew that it could only be a girl. And what1s interesting is that when I heard that I really truly was a mummy, and I had a baby boy, it never entered my head that I1d wanted a girl, I was just so happy that it was born at last and healthy, and when he cried out I knew that only he could be our child. How could it have been a girl when it was a boy? Translated by Andrew C. Rouse Illustrated by László Réber
