RE: Number 5 has arrived.
Well, the day arrived. My son Dominic joined us yesterday (March 25) at 11:46am. He is happy and healthy and ABSOLUTELY the cutest kid in the world. :-) I was right there watching the whole thing, and although I had worlds of respect and admiration for my wife beforehand, it reached all new levels yesterday. Having a child is an amazing thing. The sound of a crying baby means something entirely different - it breaks your heart.
(As you can see, my sentences are clear and lucid at the point. My and baby are still in the hospital, so I'm not sleep deprived yet.)
