Proud Aunt Alert

As The Mister suggested, I pretty much wiped out my camera battery; but I always carry a spare, fully charged. Here is a look at the new nephew and I when he was a few hours old and alert. This is one of those rare occasions in life when I am struck with the significance of the event at the moment it occurs. As I said yesterday, new life is always a miracle. Add to that the fact that I enjoyed this miracle with folks that I deeply love, namely the parents of the baby, and watched my dearest girlfriend operate in her strength as a delivery room nurse, and it's a miracle with significance!
