For Unto US (Kathy and Me) a Child is Born
Diana, our new daughter, was born on Good Friday! She weighed nine pounds and one ounce, and was 21 1/2 inches long. Even though she was in pickle juice for nine months, she is beautiful. (She looks like the little “Ice Age” baby) Kathy was basically in labor from Wednesday on, and we went to the hospital at 4:45 AM. Diana was born by c-section at eight PM!
Many beautiful things happened, but as I am just getting home and getting adjusted to the exponential increase in work and DEcrease in sleep, I will have to write about it all in detail in a day or so.
You can see pictures of the process at http://kiralisa.wordpress.com/2008/03/22/a-precious-baby-is-born/where my friend and churchmember, the great photographer Lisa Thomas, has chronicled our experience.
Hi Derrick,

Oh Derrick,
I just popped over to see the pictures and I was moved to tears. How beautiful she is! And Kathy too. She looked so good! I loved the pic of big bro and little sis meeting for the first time.
Thank you SO much for allowing us to see such intimate and special pictures of you all.
