About seven or eight summers ago, two older and wiser parrotheads said something to me that I will never forget. As the three of us stood on the upper portion of the Lakewood parking lot overlooking the phlock, I mentioned that times like this are the greatest times of my life. The more senoir man paused for a minute and said, "There is only one thing better than a Buffett show, the birth of your first child."
He was right, and I am happy to say that my lovely wife, who was at that show with me, gave birth to a healthy baby girl on Saturday. Her name is Keira Sage.
Our new baby girl

Congratulations jbfins and best wishes for the New Year!
There are quite a few of us now on this board who have welcomed a new addition to the family within the past couple years. There are all those stories and "warnings" from "others" about getting married and having children but I have to say if it wasn't for my wife and son I would still be lost in Key West......wait a minute that doesn't sound so bad after all
Oh well, too late now. Enjoy the times with your daughter because all those same people also say the children grow up too quick

The baby's cheeks, that is...but you can kiss your wife too for her hard work!!! 
Do not resent growing old. Many are denied the privilege.
