“For he is beautiful and good” (Exodus 2:2)
January 1, 2008
At 5:24am on December 29, we greeted a sweet, blond-haired and blue-eyed wonder into the world. There is much to say– My heart is spilling over (with bigger-and-bigger-and-bigger love of Miriam and new love of my son) and tears flowing hard (a lot of trial and infinite joy)–but for now:
The essential facts, new one: Male; 7 lbs 6 ounces; 19″ long, tender heart. Pictures soon.
The essential facts, Miriam: Ima; 124 lbs – (7 lbs 6 ounces + amniotic fluid); radiant; exhausted; recovering; otherwordly stength and fortitude; inspiring love and generosity of spirit. Pictures soon.
The essential facts, Me: Abba, 160 lbs; overjoyed; awed; sleepless; in love; at home, missing his wife and son (who he only just met).
SAVE THE DATE: Brit ceremony on Shabbat, January 5 on the UES. Details to follow.
