My OB/GYN had a nickname for me: Fertile Myrtle!! He said all I had to do was look at a zipper and get pregnant!!! Well, my eyes must have strayed too low one day, although I can't remember when it was. The end result was Martin!! No matter how old he gets, he will always be my baby (although he gave me a stern warning at age 3 that he was no longer a baby!!!).
Martin had his life laid out by the time he was 10. He would join the Air Force for college money, then go to law school and eventually become the president of the United States. For a while there I wasn't quite sure he would stick to this plan, but the day I sent him off to Boot Camp I knew the ball was rolling in the right direction.
Martin met Laila while stationed in Tacoma, Washington and married her shortly afterward. They now reside in Folsom, California where Martin is in his second tour of duty and working as an Air Force Recruiter. In August, 2001, he will receive his commission as a Staff Sergeant - one of few recruits to pass the exam before the end of the 4-year enlistment stage.
