I join my niece, Sara, and her husband, Carl, in welcoming their son, Colin Daniel, to the world. Colin was born about 12 hours ago. 9 pounds, 11 ounces. 22.5 inches long. Big baby! I hear he's "very pink and happy."

That is, indeed, the joy of the day!

Edited to correct Colin's birth length.

Love, joy, and congratulations to fredcritter and Susan on this, the 20th anniversary of your wedding day.

I remember so much from that day, and from the days and years that followed so swiftly, swiftly. I treasure those memories. Even more, I treasure the two of you.

Added bonus prize: Jeff Healy's BBC performance of the song written by John Hiatt and Fred Kroller, and from 1989 no less.
