TO LIFE

Alas, this blog entry must be short, for it is past 1:00 in the a.m.

Both mother and daughter are doing very well (as far as I know right now).

Status on both will be coming periodically; so don't fret.

Info:
Rebekah Marie Sikkema was born on March 21 2008 A.D.
She tipped the scales at 7 pounds 7 ounces, while stretching to just a quarter inch shy of 21"

We are both very happy and incredibly thankful for this new gift of life.
...
What else to say? For those of you who have undergone this experience before I hope you can take joy in the beautiful magnitude of the gift given, and for those who haven't had the privilege as of yet, trust me when I say it is a gift like no other. A truly and singularly awesome event, in the traditional sense of the word (giving real inflection to the 'awe' in 'awesome').

Much more to come ladies and gentlemen, but for now this will be all. 
Another busy day tomorrow.
