This day, (Nov 3) 27 years and 8 months ago (approximately), we got the surprise of a lifetime. We were on the pill but got pregnant regardless. Four and a half months later we get stunned once more although we didn't think that possible, TWINS? I yelled. On November 3, 1991, Homestead AFB, FL, at 4:58 pm Julian blessed our family and at 5:02 pm Dennis completed the blessing and made our family whole. They were a month early, Julian weighed 5lbs 10oz while Dennis weighed only 5lbs, they only spent an extra day in the hospital and came home with us sooner and stronger than we expected. They were born fighters, beating odds and obstacles and exceeding expectations and goals in education, career, and life that continue to make their parents extremely proud and happy...beyond belief!!! Happy Birthday Julian Maldonado and Dennis (Linuz) Maldonado, the best sons anyone can have, I feel really honored to be your father!
