Howdy Creekers!
I'm up at this time due to a HUGE change in our lives. LOML and I have been waiting to adopt a child for some time now. Well, after a couple of close calls over the past 14 months, we recieved a call on Friday afternoon that a baby had been born that morning and that the birth mother and father were both in complete agreement about placing the child for adoption. Most birth mothers will make this decision earlier in their pregnancy, so there is usually some time to prepare...but, who really needs that!
We imediately left our jobs and raced down to the hospital to meet our new son, Robert Ty Harbin. (Robert after my Dad, and we'll call him Ty.)
Here are the specs on this new model;
6 lbs. 5 ozs.
20 1/2 inches long
Big feet!
A full head of blonde hair.
And a little cleft in his chin. My Mom jokes that we should have named him Kirk (Douglas.)
This is our first child and we couldn't be more thrilled!...and tired! LOML is on Cloud 9, and that just doubles the joy for me. I've committed to being a father that will not make important life choices for my son or impose my dreams on him. He can pick whatever position in hockey he wants play!
Well enough of me rambling, here's the little man of the hour!
