Mom and Dad got married young, about 18 & 19 years old.  It was a quick wedding during Dad's leave of  absence, or that's what I was told (or remember).  People gossiped that they "had to get married."  More than 10 years later they adopted me.  4 years after they got me they adopted Johnny.

One day when I was 10 my Mom was driving me to school.  She asked, "Do you want to know a secret?"  Of course I said yes.  She said, "I think I'm going to have a baby."  I looked at her and replied, "But you can't have babies."  She said she thinks she was and not to tell anybody.
