I am so excited! I'm walkign around in a dream, thinking about fat little arms, and rosebud mouth, and eyes seeing everything. and Cheeks. I can't wait to see who he looks like. At a glance, a lot like Flannery, but different. I love you all four!

Hmm! I seem to remember you saying you'd never name a kid after a saint . . .

Well, congratulations! (Even if we did have to hear third hand.) :-)

It's great that he is healthy and large because with that handle he'll need both and a good sense of humor to boot! I wish "Huck" a happy healthy life along with "Flannery", Mom and Dad. Hopefully I'll see you all some day'....Love Uncle John
