Excerpt
The day my little brother, Jason, was born was the most confusing and disorienting day of my life. I was only two at the time, but it was traumatic enough that I still remember everything. I can still remember my mom being pregnant, but I don't think I really understood what was about to happen to me. Since my parents were at the hospital for his birth, I had to stay the night at my grandparents’ house. We visited the next day. When I went into my mom’s hospital room and saw her holding him, I didn’t feel any resentment . . . yet.
