Baby Girl

Sunday afternoon my wife and I had a baby girl. 9 pounds 4 ounces. 21 inches. This is our third child.

When our first was born everything that had contact with him scared me. Wind, loud noises, germs, etc.

Now the only thing that scares me are the two oldest children. They want so much to hold and tickle and poke and prod and hug and love the newborn. I feel like George watching Lenny play with a rabbit. For the next six months, my number one job is to protect the baby from her siblings.
