I just got word yesterday...my dad is a grandfather, and I am an uncle.
My sister gave birth to a healthy, 7 pound, 15 ounce baby boy! Uforunately, she had to have a C-section, but all is good.
I usually don't make comments ike this, but he has to be the cutest little guy I saw. <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle>
I don't know how people can expect peace in this world, with all that has happened, but I sure hope he is raised well.

Congratulations
Birth gives hope with new minds, fresh ideas, open attitudes. I hope he has a chance to make it a world he wants, without baggage we leave for him.

Thanks, Chinook!
Good words of advice. I'm sure in a world like this, new rules will be made, things will change, and life will always flow with the surrounding world.
This generation and the next will be one of the most rewarding.

Congatulations!
Thanks for reminding us about the cycle of life. While there are some difficult times ahead for freedom loving people everywhere, the actions being contempated now, may bode well for the future.
I, for one, am quite hopeful!

Thank you for posting this. It's a pleasant change to read something uplifting in the midst of the evil of this last week. I have certainly tried harder to be a better dad, son and husband to make a little bit difference in the lives of those I love during this dark time.

Congrats Turbo923.
I don't have kids of my own, but I do know how precious nephews can be.
I still get a good fealing when they come running to the door shouting "Uncle Mark, Uncle Mark" <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle>

Congrats Turbo. Please keep in mind that the only things that are REALLY new are babies and tomorrow.
