She's here!!!!

In the year 2000, April 23 she was born. Saturday night we were out at a house of some friends for an Iranian/Columbian BBQ.  We enjoyed this back porch party so much that we stayed until 2 A.M.  Back home at 3 A.M., Tanja showed the first sign that the baby moves its way.  Around 1 P.M. Easter Sunday, we went to the hospital where Alina Cosima was born at about 3:20 P.M.  She was lucky that I did not name her Bunny.

What a wonderful experience to watch and holding hands. Even more exciting was holding the baby.  I shed many tears of joy.  Tanja is doing great. Alina Cosima could not be healthier. You can click for enlargements
