A song that says what, A song that says I'm
here year through thick and thin. A song that says
there's nobody else I want to be doing life with.
Speaker 4 (07:05):
Use everything to me in my life. We met in
nineteen ninety one and our first day of senior high school.
Speaker 1 (07:12):

Speaker 4 (07:14):
Thirty three years ago?
Speaker 1 (07:16):
Wow, that is a long time to love somebody. My
bestie Janie and I have also been friends since ninety one,
and I don't ever want to imagine doing life without her.
Speaker 4 (07:31):
I had moved away from where she's at twenty one
years ago.
Speaker 1 (07:35):
Well, let me play a song to keep your hearts
close together.
Speaker 4 (07:39):
Thank you, Delilah, Thank you.
Speaker 1 (07:41):
You have a good night. Hello you've called Delilah? Who
is this? This is Casey, Hi, Casey. What can I
do for you tonight?
Speaker 6 (07:56):
I can't believe I got thirty. So I grew up
listening to you, and now I'm a mom and I
have a seven month old and we're sitting rocking on
my front porch and I just wanted you to pick
a song for I don't know, like the Circle of
Life or something like that. You know, I listened to
you and now I get to share you with him,
(08:17):
and it's a wonderful moment.
Speaker 1 (08:20):
And what is your baby's name?
Speaker 6 (08:22):
His name is LB for Little Bob. His dad is
named Bob as well.
Speaker 5 (08:28):
L B.
Speaker 1 (08:29):
I'm writing down Elby but LB little Bob because he
is a junior.
Speaker 6 (08:35):
He's actually a third but yeah.
Speaker 1 (08:38):
So how does it feel to have your entire heart
outside of your body now in a small person?
Speaker 6 (08:46):
It's hard to describe. I never thought I wanted to
be a mom, and then I became a mom and
I can't imagine doing anything else now.
Speaker 1 (08:54):
So when you were a teenager, when you were a kid,
you never never imagined yourself with a baby to your breast,
pushing a stroller, looking up recipes for homemade baby food
so you don't have to buy the can junk that
That wasn't your vision?
Speaker 6 (09:11):
Please? No, not really. And I never really liked kids
a ton. My husband has always really wanted kids, and
I was kind of indifferent, and so we decided to
have one. And I was like, all right, here we go,
Like I'm either gonna it's gonna work or it's not,
and I am madly in love. It is so worth it.
Speaker 1 (09:30):
It's gonna work or it's not. In which case, honey,
here's your kid? Is that was that the plan? You
get to be mister mom because you know what, this
is highly overrated and so here you go.
Speaker 6 (09:43):
Luckily it didn't work out like that all right.
Speaker 1 (09:45):
Now, just keep falling in love with little LB, and
I will play a song to celebrate this circle of life.
Speaker 6 (09:52):
Thank you so much. Have a good night, Delilahs.
Speaker 1 (09:56):
I so hope you have enjoyed these radio moments as
much as I enjoy bringing them to you. I'll share
more with you each weekday on Hey It's Delilah.
