Welcome to the world, little Felicity Elizabeth Mayes! It's hot in the summer and cold in the winter. It's round and wet and crowded. At the outside, you've got about a hundred years here. There's only one rule that I know of, — darn it, you've got to be kind. (apologies to K. Vonnegut)

Congratulations John, your daughter is perfect! Best wishes to the mother and the rest of the family as well.

Congratulations to you and your wife John. this is not your first , right ? I think I heard someone talk on your videos. Well I hope you look forward to the first 6 month of wonderful untuned noice during nights.
Although it was (and still is)the most wonderful feeling to be blessed with a little angel of a copy of one self.


Lars.

Congratulations, John. This is no doubt your best work, but I'm assuming there won't be an instructional video associated with this creation. :lol:
