                        Mark was born this morning at 7:27 CDT. His weight was 6 pounds 13.7 ounces and 20.5 inches long. Mother and baby doing fine. Every one else is a nervous wreck. It was our youngest daughters first and our seventh grandchild. Pass out the cigars.

                        Again, thanks to all. He will get to come home tomorrow. If I knew how to post pictures I would. I took several with my digital camera.

                        He and the mother are doing fine. The father is still strutting around like the proud father, he should be. We just thank God he was born healthy.

                        Berny I feel your pride and someday (many years down the road) I hope to be blessed as many times as you have. Congrats Granddad! Cool [8D]
