    Congratulations! Ok, so I lost the pool, but the most important thing is that Ezra is here and safe. EXCELLLENT name. James will dig.

    Here’s to parenthood!

  17. Susan Nye Ferrell Says:

    SO excited for you. What a wonderful name…Maybe he’ll grow up and go to the Glasgow UNI like his predisessor (sp?) Chalmers. Enjoy every moment, you won’t believe how quickly they become “big” and not like newborns…it helps make up for the physical hardness of the first days that they are so tiny and sweet.
