My parents used to tell me that too, but somehow I always thought I could detect a note of sarcasm in their voices. ;)

My Mom decided to stay home on Christmas day, rather than go to the hospital when her labor started. I was her third kid, so I guess she had some idea how long she could wait.
I came very close to being born at home, though. They got hit with a monster snow storm late in the day and had to call a taxi around midnight to take her to the hospital. He was not a happy taxi driver when he found out she was in labor, so he drove like a bat out of hell, got her there, and I was born at 1:05am December 26th. (about 30 minutes after she got to the hospital)
