The Birth of Michael

Into this world Michael Leonard esjarlais was born on June 16, 1984 in Winnipeg, Manitoba. Michael was born at the Women's Pavilion. His mother was in labour for 12 hours but she didn't mind one bit. She said the pain was worth it and I agree 100%

My sister and I went to the hospital a week after he was born. I remember thinking I don't care about this little boy. He was jaundiced and my sister was crying. Two weeks later I held him in my arms. My attitude changed alot. I love him so much now.

I'm so glad he was born. He brings me alot of joy. I feel happy when he's around. My days are brighter when I see his cute little face. I find it cute when he giggles or laughs or acts silly. I act silly alot when l'm around him. He's only eleven. So what can you expect? Naturally I want to play with him.

We play cards or we play tackle football in the summertime. Michael and I play snowball fights in the wintertime. Sometimes we play tickle man or cops and robbers or we watch T.V. I always have fun when I'm with Michael.
