What a wonderful blessing to your family!

And since you shared such a wonderfully inspiring poem in another thread, I'll offer one back (that has brought me great joy in thinking of my own children) ...

My day old child
Author: Carol Lynn Pearson

My day old child in my arms
with my lips against his ear
I whispered strongly "How I wish,
I wish that you could hear,

"I've a hundred wonderful things to say
(A tiny cough and nod)
Hurry, hurry, hurry and grow
so I can tell you about God."

My day old baby's mouth was still
and my words only tickled his ear,
but a kind of light passed through his eyes,
and I saw this thought appear,

"How I wish I had a voice and words,
I've a hundred things to say,
Before I forget, I'd tell you of God,
I left Him yesterday."

Congrats Granpa, My first Grandson is 11 weeks old now So I know exactly how filled with joy you are at the moment. I want to point out that you should take lots of photo's cause every day will be a great new adventure and a new first for the boy. (BTW: Walmart has great specials a small package for about $7)

Great news to hear. Make sure you spend lots of time with the little fella, you're a parent, you know how fast they grow up. Take lots of pictures like Unk said too.

Nice looking little fella too.

Congrats, Dajoga! Bet you can't wait to the day that you can get the kid all wound up and give him back to his parents! :devil: You know, getting even for all the grief your kids gave you?!:evilgrin:

I hear you, M.C., but unfortunately he lives over 400 miles away. I shed some tears this morning as I told him good-bye! :crying:

Thanks for everyone's kind comments--
