Stories about those days.

The stories that people have about Jamie’s photos are a source of amazement.  Some are of the “that’s me and we were doing this” type of stories from Jamie’s friends. Some are the “I never met Jamie but this was taken on my birthday and it means a lot to me. And some are just stunningly moving one of a kind stories.

    I’d like to think he went to get some flowers for my mom because I was born on that day! (Probably the shipping to Argentina failed) hahahah

    My father shot himself in the head on this day, leaving behind my mom and me. I was 5 years old. I’m glad to see people were born on this day, and that happy things also happened. God bless you all.

    That day I was born in a country that doesn’t exist anymore – the German Democratic Republic. I shall forever be grateful for the unification of Germany <3

    That day in June, my boyfriend was born in a province in Spain. It snowed so much, his father nearly couldn’t make it to the hospital.

    I was born to a young single mother on this day. She took special care in naming me. While in the hospital, a Christmas special with the Cabbage Patch kids was on TV. One of the kids had the same exact first and middle name as myself. She refused to ever buy me a cabbage patch doll since. I love and miss you so much Momma.

    In the earliest hours of this day I experienced a general discomfort and as the day progressed it got a bit rough. I packed a small bag and when evening came, my husband took me to the clinic and that night my oldest daughter came into the word.
