I've got the toughest wife in the world. You can take that to the bank. Jacqui woke me up at 1:30am this morning...labor was full on by 4am. At 9:53am Porter Rhys Degan was born...at home, with no drugs...to a couple of very proud parents, their midwifes, and a faithful dog.
We'll save details for future phone calls, Skypes, emails, and visits. The important info is that Jacqui and Porter are both doing very well, and looking forward to some rest. Me? I'm going to go out on the back porch with my dog, raise my glass to the sunset, and relive the day.
See you soon.
