Congratulations Christian and Melissa.

Nothing like holding that the first. You'll love it.

Oh, just to tag on to your excitement, I'm gonna be a grandpa. I already announced that, but, today I have proof. These ultrasound images came this morning in an email. For all I know it could be a litter of puppies, but I'm told it's a grandbaby.

So, don't be bashful, let's see those images and congrats to you both. How cool!

Congratulations, Christian!!   It is a great moment in your life.    You, too, Bruce. Both positions are rewarding but being a grandpa takes a lot less work.    All it takes to be a good parent is to set aside the next 20 years and live for the family. Worth every moment.

Ron

Congrats Heath and wife too.

The little Dickey is due March, like Christian and Melissa's baby.

I think we have three ladies due at church, one newby last week named Kayna!

My wife and I went shopping this evening at WalMart. There were babies and kiddos everywhere. Such is life, it's a great circle and wonderful to be a part of it too.

Thanks everyone who chimed in with the congrats!!

My turn now - Congrats Heath on your first and to you too Bruce for soon becoming a Grandpa!!

Must be something in the water these days. Me and Melissa know two other couples that will be having babies Feb/March.

Bruce, I was gonna post a pic of the ultrasound but then I chickened out.

Ahhh, once you've seen one.....

Anyway, there is just nothing like having a baby.

Babies are a powerful sign that there is a purpose and a future as bright as can be.
