This brought to mind a what if scenario with my first pregnancy. 9 months times 3 was a lot of time to notice that there was a sobriety issue going on in my home.
After my stepdad passed and my mom remarried soon after I had my first child, I realized what was involved in a couple of drinks after trying her eggnog one holiday.
