Jeanette Davis Norris was born in Miami, Florida in 1954. She moved to Louisville, Kentucky in 2006. She was inspired to write this book about her parents before her mother passed in 2021. She reinvented the actions that occurred that day by going to the beach on Labor Day. Which was the same exact month and day, September 6, sixty-seven years ago. Her mom was nine months pregnant with Jeanette. They went to the beach that day and had a wonderful time. When they returned, her mom lay across the bed to take a nap, but instead her water broke and was rushed to the hospital. Jeanette was born the following morning. September 7, 1954, on a Monday, Labor Day. Jeanette went to the beach. The next day, on her birthday, she came to the hospital to celebrate her birthday with her mom, not knowing this was going to be her last day with her. She decorated the hospital room with balloons, posters, and party favors. Jeanette remembers that day being an awesome day. She and her husband, Derrick, sang "Happy Birthday" and prayed. They had cake and her mom was there with her, opening her eyes, as if to let Jeanette know she was celebrating with her. This was a day Jeanette will never forget, the best birthday party she has ever had.
